Bushcraft by Ray Mears
Popular survival expert Ray Mears presents a richly illustrated compendium of practical skills and wisdom, relevant not only to wilderness survival, but also urban life. The book contains step-by-step guides to a wide range of survival techniques, as well as accounts of Ray's own experiences and his bushcraft philosophy.
Ray Mears taught us how to eat, wash and sleep well, even in the most hostile terrain..Mears is like Diarmuid Gavin, Handy Andy and Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall all rolled into one. We are used to him collecting fresh water in hollowed-out fruit-bats, or squeezing natural toothpaste from a dead tarantula. But last night he was knocking up whole suites of furniture from bamboo, including benches, a large dining room table and a sort of four-poster bedstead with built-in candle holders. - Paul Hoggart, The TimesRay Mears is a bushman first and foremost and really can survive in any extreme environment. I can't think of a better companion in a crisis. - Tim Lewis, GQIf Ray Mears isn't a Great Living Englishman, then goodness me, who is? The man is great, and he doesn't even begin to know how great he is. Ray is a persuader, pragmatist and populariser in the Durrell-Attenborough-Bellamy tradition. - Robert Crampton, The Times MagazineComplete - and certainly aesthetically pleasing...it is sure to consolidate Mears' position as the foremost purveyor of bushcraft in the UK today. - Geographical Magazine
Born in 1964, Ray Mears has travelled the world studying and teaching the art of survival. As well as his TV and writing work, he founded Woodlore, a company which runs training courses in bushcraft and associated skills.
