Publisher's summary

With this comprehensive wilderness food guide, you can guarantee your survival and eat well in the wild.

The simple fact of life is - everyone has to eat.

But what happens if you get lost in the wilderness without supplies to help you survive...

Or a natural disaster suddenly cuts you off from modern conveniences and help services...

What if a camping, hiking, or a weekend outdoor trip ends up in an emergency where you have to fend for yourself in the great outdoors...

The truth is, you only have a limited amount of time before you become just another statistic.

Without protein from food, energy levels will quickly plummet. Without vitamins, the immune system weakens and wounds heal slower. And without water, you can only last three days.

Luckily, living off the land is a technique that has been successfully practiced for centuries. Nature already has everything you need to survive. You just need to know where to look for food, how to identify what will save you and what will kill you, and how to gather it at no risk to your safety.

Nature’s larder is abundant in all kinds of nourishing treats. But there are also a number of look-alike poisonous species you need to know about. Having the skill to identify the treacherous twins could mean the difference between life and death in a survival situation.

Being able to light a fire without a match will not only keep you warm, but it will also help you to disinfect, cook, and enjoy the food you gather. And knowing how to purify water for cooking and drinking purposes will keep you healthy and strong, for as long as your survival situation lasts.

In Practical Survival Skills, you will discover:

  • A portable guide with essential information on how to discover the abundance that nature’s larder has to offer
  • How to perform the universal edibility test - discover the poisonous species before it’s too late
  • The basic foraging and bushcraft skills for every survivalist, hiker, and outdoor enthusiast out there
  • The easy plant identification technique - discover edible plant families and know what not to forage
  • How to make your own tools and utensils, traps and weapons, and cooking equipment absolutely from scratch
  • Everything you need to know to find, gather, and purify water that’s drinkable if you get lost in the wilderness for a long time
  • A comprehensive survival foods index with plants, berries, roots, herbs, and protein sources you can find anywhere around the world
  • Plus bonus book Practical Survival Skills: First Aid & Natural Medicines In A Survival Situation. An essential audiobook to protect you, your family, and others when help is not available right away...or at all
  • Practical first-aid skills and crucial knowledge of nature’s remedies that could one day mean the difference between life or death
  • Steps for you to assess injuries, administer first-aid, and use resources available in the wilderness
  • Seven common items you can use as improvised treatment for sprains, strains, and broken bones - no special equipment or preparation needed

Even if you already know the basics of first-aid, anyone can freeze when faced with stressful situations and unexpected events.

Survival in an everyday urban environment requires very different skills than in the wilderness.

Pretty good.

This is a somewhat slim volume. The title suggests advanced technique, and there are some basic abilities depicted in mediocre photographs.

Great listen!

This audiobook was a great listen. Probably need the physical book as it would be a great reference. There is a lot of good information most people don't know or think about.

Get your storage up

This is a fantastic book that will show you how to build a pantry with long-lasting basics in case there is ever a food crisis or if you just wish to store reserves. They go through which goods to store and how to keep them safe in an emergency. It was beneficial to learn how to filter water. Loved it.

Highly recommend this book

This book is a fantastic place to start for novices, with a few advanced concepts thrown in for good measure. This is a great book to read if you're new to these themes. I'd purchase it again, and I might give it as a present to my family. The book is well-made.
