Hi all. I may be on a bit of a goose chase with this one, but does anyone know if there is such a book which you would call the ultimate manual on bushcraft/primitive skills,and i mean a manual,a step by step guide if you like.
I already have the usual suspects Nessmuk,Kephart,RM,Larry Dean Olsen,etc.To me after reading these books they appeared as though they were saying what was achievable in the outdoors rather than a, "this is how you do it".i,e flint knapping,bow making,basketry etc,i mean some of these books touch on the subjects but don,t go into them in great detail.
So what do you think,is there such a book or am i going to have to buy a whole load of books on each subject,and then,convert one of the rooms in my house into a library to hold them all :shock: oh that,ll please the wife. :roll:
