Hello all Fellow Bushcrafter Types :camping: ,
I would like to bring to for your attention , amusement , perusal and ultimately purchase the following book which is Book One in a series of Instructional and Educational manuals released from the Ludlow Survivor Group Forum ( of which I must be made known, I am a member ) which is collection of various articles and tutorials.

I'm more than happy with my copy it contains a treasure trove of useful and relevant material for everyone fromthe likes of us Bushcrafty outdoorsy type people to self sufficient good life types , small holders, dabblers and everyone else in between.

I've learnt so much from these type of Grass roots down to earth articles and tutorials I truly do rate it as an additional resource and look forward to the forthcoming other issues.


How to Prepare for Emergency & Survival - Book 1 Living off the Land

Available through the Lulu Website as a Hard Copy and an PDF e-copy.

Part one is "Living of the land" which contains a massive amount of detailed and useful tutorials related to the topic in question its 584 pages long, and priced at just £14.99.


A really worthwhile investment and 100% practical 'all-killer,no-filler' information for the adventurous and independent soul.

Well worth the e-book version for the butchery / game dressing tutorials - I learned a lot from them

well, to be quite honest....
I do think it is a great book, but half of it is of limited use to me, so I would go for the e-version and print out the parts that are of use.... I have a real problem with reading from a screen. My eyes start playing tricks on me within minutes....
