Hi all,
I am after a good book on wilderness living / bushcraft / survival. I spend a lot of time in the outdoors leading expeditions (mostly from a canoe) across the globe, and am always looking to develop my knowledge.
I have read all the usual Mears type text (found them uninspiring) and found my best book by miles to be 'Bushcraft: Outdoor Skills and Wilderness Survival' by Mors Kochanski. More recently I have been reading the books written by Frank Spencer Chapman, these are awesome and you can learn a lot from these. I would like the book to compliment my expeditions in 2011, these are to;
- Across Scotland Canoe Skye Bridge - Inverness (January 2011)
- Sweden wilderness living (February 2011)
- Northern Sweden & Norway (June + July 2011)
- Southern Africa (lots)
It does not have to be on hard technique but could also be about psychology, history, physiology as long as they are relevant.
I look forward to hearing your suggestions
Rob
