A comprehensive, practical, and reliable guide to finding food in the woods and living off the land, by respected wilderness survivalists. With text by wilderness survivalists, the information in How to Eat in the Woods is tried, trusted, and true. One of the most complete books written on the subject, this portable guide includes essential information on how to track, trap, kill, and prepare various types of animals; select bait, land fish, and clean and cook the catch; recognize edible plants, fruits, berries, and nuts; locate bird eggs; catch edible insects; and find potable water. Also included is information on building a fire and preparing food without utensils. Review: Very good information to know! - Very good information in this book along with pictures on how to build different tools, hunting traps etc! I would definitely recommend! Review: Great resource which is simple and comes with pictures - I like how this book goes in to detail what you can eat in the woods, what you CAN'T eat, and how to prepare/utilize what you find. The pictures of vegetation is more like fine line sketches than actual pictures (they're very pretty), but my biggest fear is mixing up two similar-looking plants and dying from poison inside a Voltzwagon Beetle or something. With that being said: The book DOES describe many identification techniques for the edible plants, and is an impressive and comprehensive collection to reference. This is definitely worth a buy, even to mess around.

Exceptional!
I got this as a gift for my husband, we plan to keep it in our camper when we are out in nature with our kids. I love the printing quality, the cover quality, and the wide array of content too! We can’t wait to bring it on our next camping adventure and let our boys learn, observe and explore this amazing world we live in. I would absolutely recommend this as a personal purchase or a gift for the outdoor enthusiast too. It will easily be a favorite.

Great for outdoorsy people!
Got as a Christmas gift for a person is really into outdoors activities. Went over REALLY well. He loved it! Plus, the texture on the book feels like tree bark, which is super cool. Legit a great gift! Ranges from things you can pick and eat to different ways to trap animals. Super interesting. It also has great illustrations to show you things, which makes it much more readable and enjoyable.

So Much Content
To say that this book is thorough is a massive under statement. Plants, Tracking, Traps, Fishing, the list goes on.
