Outdoor Survival Skills Book

Outdoor Survival Skills Book by Larry Dean Olsen

Outdoor Survival Skills has taught generations of wilderness adventurers how to survive in nature without expensive purchased equipment, instead drawing on knowledge of the land and carefully tested techniques, many of them ancient, for finding or creating shelter, fire, tools, water, and plant and animal foods. Anecdotes from the author's lifetime of experience provide thrilling examples of the skills and attitudes that ensure survival outdoors. In this newest edition, updated text is accompanied by colour photos to help both veteran and novice outdoor explorers embrace their survival skills.
