Written by survivalist expert Dave Canterbury, Bushcraft 101 gets you ready for your next backcountry trip with advice on making the most of your time outdoors. Based on the Five Cs of Survivability - cutting tools, covering, combustion devices, containers, and cordages - this valuable guide offers only the most important survival skills to help you craft resources from your surroundings and truly experience the beauty and thrill of the wilderness.

In this book, you'll also discover detailed information on:

  • Choosing the right items for your kit.
  • Manufacturing needed tools and supplies.
  • Collecting and cooking food.
  • Protecting yourself from the elements.

With Canterbury's guidance, you'll not only prepare yourself for any climate and situation, you'll also learn how to use the art of bushcraft to reconnect with nature in ways you've never imagined.

Good, thorough and easy to understand but I feel like this is the sort of book I would have been better off getting a physical copy. Not really a criticism but North American focussed and should say this in the title if I'm honest. Hard to get Aussie relevant info. Like for example, our wood makes carrying an axe a bit obsolete and you would be better off with a saw. I think his advanced bushcraft book suffers more though because it has a whole section of wood types only found in North America. Still interesting though and only a minor criticism if anything

Good intro into the topic

Great narrator, great book, but because of the complexity of the descriptions relying heavily on diagrams and illustrations you are unable to grasp many of the concepts. Instead it just says ‘see below’ but of course, you can’t see the illustrations.

Excellent book, terrible audio book
