There are a few good bushcraft books out there and I have read a good few of them and I have to say this is my favourite so far. The layout is good and clear, glossy pages with lots of good photographs of shelter building, edible wild food like berries and mushrooms. Some good drawings and instructions on different knots and how to extract water from the ground etc. This book covers everything you need to know about bushcraft and vital tips and techniques on surviving in the wild. Good lists and recommendations on the gear, tools, knives and equipment you will need, it's in a good order too which I like. I bought this pre owned for a really low price and it arrived as good as new, I am very pleased with it and it will remain a part of my outdoor book collection for many years to come now.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good bushcraft book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Smaller, no worse
*by K***R on 17 October 2003*

This is essentially a smaller, pocket-sized version of Mears's Inspirational Guide to Bushcraft. Not a bad thing, not entirely good either. When I bought the larger book, I was impressed by the quality and quantity of the pictures and the amount of information contained in it. I was, however, disappointed that the book's sheer size made it impossible to cart around in the wilderness where one to want to practise some of the techniques it describes. This is the book I wich I had bought instead. Lots of fairly useless information for most of us - how to skin an elk, that kind of thing. But also some really good stuff - how to build good fires, carve things, build shelter from naturally occurring materials etc. As far as I am aware, Ray really doesn't have any competition in the mainstream. He is famous for his relatability and excellence in popularising bushcraft. The book reads like he talks, as opposed to being ghost-written and then signed by the star. As such, it is entertaining and inspiring while being educational too. If you plan on exploring the wilds - take this book with you.
