Title says it all, botany book suggestions would be great as tools are great, knowledge beyond cutting and carving gets overlooked far too often, in my honest opinion. Send your best book recommendations relating to bushcraft/survival (but botany ones being a priority if possible). Here's one...

I've received an Indigo gift card and was debating between Bushcraft 101 by Dave Canterbury or Bushcraft by Mors Kochanski. anyone who has read them both make a recommendation? or suggest some others worth taking a look at? thanks!

I know I'll always have a pocket Bible on me, and right now my temporary book is "Animal Farm". I would really like to see some of the books you guys bring. Books are easily one of the best things ever created, especially in the day and age of technology. So, what is/are it/they? FB

I’ve been talking about doing a GAW for a while now, so this is long overdue. I’m planning several more for the near future. I’ve learned quite a bit from Mors Kochanski’s Bushcraft book, and I’d like to give you a free opportunity to get your hands on it. As such, this GAW is open to those...

Hi all, My husband and I are interested in being self sustainable. I'm a wheelchair user myself, so my possibilities to work in the garden and chopping wood are limited. I can spin wool, I weave, I knit, crochet and some sewing. What I'm interested in also is making baskets, hats and other...

I've been recently looking for books about bushcraft, campng, general outdoorsman skills/ ideas, or journals from people of the frontier/ fur trade. I do have "Woodcraft and Camping" by Nessmuk, "The Book of Camping and Woodcraft" by Horace Kephart, and the Bushcraft Series that Dave Canterbury...

Hey all, wasn't sure where to post this. Just thought I would share a little book recommendation for any readers out there (no spoilers). The Revenant is the story of Hough Glass, some of you might have seen the movie. The book takes place in the early 1800's American Frontier and goes in to...

hello, I’m about to buy some stuff off amazon and I figured I’d try to pick up a few books. I’d research good bushcraft books but figured I’d get good advice here. I’ve looked at Horace kephart and John Muir books and I’m looking for recommendations. I’m not nescessarily looking for “how to”...

This is my GO TO book when I need information about plants in Korea. Please enjoy.

Okay, so for anyone who doesn't know, my avatar is a symbol from The Dark Tower series by Stephen King. This post relates to that series, so be forewarned! Anyway, at various times throughout the series, Roland's knife makes an appearance. It is capable of accomplishing a vast range of...

Looking for some leads into the history of bushcraft... I'm not talking about wilderness survival skills, woodcraft, woodsmanship, woodslore or anything else. I'm specifically looking for anything that can point to what is known as bushcraft today among those who practice is came to be...

WINNER !!! Congratulations, xRangerx !!! **************** My 100th post. Only took me 15 months. “Slow and steady wins the race.” I read barely a fraction of what I did before I got sick, but I still advocate being a book-junkie regarding most activities. Outdoor pursuits are no...

Can anybody recommend a good guide for edible wild plants for NC? I have a Peterson field guide for North America and its not specific or detailed enough for me.

Well, after a trip to the local library, I have found a couple books I would be interested in investigating .... I wonder if anyone else has or has read these books that might give feedback ... The Easy Tree Guide Common Native and Cultivated Trees of the United States and Canada by Keith...
