Bushcraft field guide to trapping and cooking.
This is a good book. it goes along with the other 2 books bushcraft 101 and advanced bushcraft. This one is all about cooking in different ways. It also shows the history of outdoor cooking. Not for just putting a stick over a fire but how to use reflective ovens, rocks etc to cook.

Dave Canterbury is the Number one teacher in his field and probably one of the most knowledgeable.
What can we say, it is a bushcraft book by Dave Canterbury. That alone will say to most people that the quality of information in this book will be second to none. Then when you read it , you are not let down. Dave Canterbury writes in a very practical way and doesn't say just do this like some authors who "Talk the talk but fail to walk the walk." The Author explains why from his experience he has come to the conclusion he has along with the history he knows from where the knowledge originated from.I was lucky to hear the author speak several times at the Bushcraft and Survival Show 2017 and when he teach in the same way as he writes and vice a versa. I cant say enough good things about all Dave Canterbury's books and recommend anyone with an interest in Nature, survival, camping or Bushcraft to read all his books.

A good, easily accessible part of a useful set of books.
Dave Canterbury is an experienced wilderness instructor and this book is testament to that. Well worth a read as part of his bushcraft set it is easily understood, clear and well illustrated. I would advise reading the earlier books in the series first but it is accessible to beginners and experienced bushcrafters alike.

I wish I could give it 3.5 stars
It's very american is the first thing I'd say so If you are like me and looking for a british book its probably not the one for you! Having said that theres plenty in here that will be multinational and certainly increased my knowledge of cooking in the wild. The other dissapointment for me was the trapping, gathering and hunting section- very little in there on that and what is in there is pretty basic. Overall though not a bad book for the novice and £10 to learn a skill that could save your life is a bargain!!

This book is everything it says it is and so much more, which is very hard to find in this genre of books. it is wonderfully written so anyone can understand the things described by the author. i would recommend this book to anyone who is intersted in the ways of hunting, trapping and eating and cooking in the outdoors. I am very impressed with its content and i bet you will be to.

They're mostly cheap. Buy 'em, store 'em & keep them as survival insurance.
They're mostly cheap. Buy 'em, store 'em & keep them as survival insurance.It would be great info (any info is extremely useful for the inexperienced, the easily stressed, and the poor memory people & just plain any emergency situation).No comments on individual quality as purchased as above as it's a quick review on about 20 ebooks I purchased, eg. I'll read them if I ever need them. If the internet still exists when the SHTF I'll let you know.Greeting from Downunder!
