Online bushcraft book

[Toadflax]

Not sure if this has been reported on these forums, but I just discovered this web site that has the complete text of a bushcraft book that looks like it was published during the war (WWII).

Hope the link is of use to people.

That is a copy of Richard Graves - Bushcraft. First published in the UK 1978.

Top book, it's the one that first gave me a name for what I had been doing since I was a kid.

A brilliant but hard to come by book, a friend in Germany showed me it years ao, his copy was from when he travelled Australia in his youth. I believe it is also available as a number of pamphlets aswell. I got my copy a few years back from abebooks for six US dollars, very happy with it too! It is pride of place next to Rays' best book in my library. Keep an eye out on abebooks and the like, they sometimes come up for cheap.

There is a good sun compass programme on that site aswell, it is a simple programme that you input various info into and you are away. The original book supplied the info and the guy who put it all up on the web wrote the programme. Give it try!
