Ray Mears Vanishing World

[myheadsashed]

Does anybody know anything about this book? Or has it not yet been released. I was looking for the new Walkabout book and this came up on Amazon, I've never seen it before. can any of you all knowing folk shed some light.

I've got no idea. It comes up on Google books but I've assumed that there might
be books whose names and ISBN numbers are logged somewhere long before
the books are actually written or available.

If it's on Amazon it's looking pretty promising though

Best place to ask would be Woodlore but they might not want to spill any beans
yet of course.

I can't for the like of me remember where I heard this but I believe it's going to be a collection of his photos dealing with many of the cultures he's visited over the years.

Cheers guys.
Sounds like a coffee table-esque type book/photo journal.

 

[Chopper]

Looks like Amazon are getting another 1300 of my hard earned pennies!

 

[firecrest]

will there be a tv series? I remember him saying on some interviews he was working on a project close to his heart.

His stomach?

 

[crazydave]

are you implying that the vanishing world is due to him eating parts of it

Oh deary dreary derry down day..............here we go again.............. Looked in the mirror recently guys?

I expect RM has taken some cracking photos over the years I think he's into his photography as some of his books say in the back the camera he used etc for which photos. I'll give it a shufty when it hits the shops I expect, and decide to buy it or not to buy it, after a good look through it

It may be the thread i started in February, in the 'library and media' section of the forum!

Good man! Wasn't trying to steal your thunder - honestly couldn't remember where I'd come across that info.

Just having a bit of fun! As you can see from this photo of Ray and myself, he's not that big a chap. I'm very slim so make him look chumkier than he really is. He was feeling very rough that night, and yet he still hung around to speak to everyone although I got the impression that he just wanted to get off to bed but he never said anything of the sort and was a true gent. he is definitely one of the nicest guys I've ever met.

Oh, and he whittled the book shelf behind us in ten minutes with a blunt SAK!

I was very disappointed when I had a look through in the shops. The format is too small to do justice to any pictures in my opinion.

Shame as I'm sure he has some spectacular pics.

 

[Gill]

i,m the same as you slamdunk, i had a look yesterday and put it back !

 

[Shewie]

That`s a shame I`ve got it on my wish list. I was hoping it was going to be in a large format like the hardback version of "Bushcraft"
