&Tom Browns Guide to Living with the Earth

If you can get past Tom Browns relentless preaching,capitalizing on Native American skills passed down to himfor free, and the fact that he works part time for the cops,

these books are treasuries of useful information. WildernessSurvival is more focused on beginner primitive skills: firemaking, short to medium term shelters, tool making, andso on.Living With the Earth turns its attention to long-termprimitive living, and includes and expands upon the skills inthe first. Absolute must haves, just dont pay for them. Go outand steal a copy today!
