Hi all,
Recently I read Mr Mears' Essential Bushcraft and Outdoor Survival Handbook but I neither of them made me think I would keep them with me as a handy reference.
I am thinking of getting the Mors Kochanski Bushcraft book, which has generally favourable Amazon reviews (my usual guide) although one of them says it is not very practical and recommends John McPherson, Jim Riggs, Larry Dean Olsen, Tom Brown and Richard Jamison as authors of alternative books. We are looking at books 10-20 years old with all of these and they don't have many recent write-ups on Amazon so I was wondering what the opinions are here for the "best" book for taking out as a handy reference?
