Core Bushcraft – Signed Copy

Description

Core Bushcraft is a comprehensive sourcebook of wilderness living skills, bringing together decades of experience teaching bushcraft and travelling in wild places.

This book is an accessible guide to key bushcraft skills for campers, hikers, paddlers, hunters and anyone who is interested in being more self-reliant in the great outdoors.

Kirtley, one of the leading bushcraft educators globally has been teaching outdoor knowledge through courses, demonstrations and presentations for more than two decades. Core Bushcraft is his second book and it focusses on what he considers to be the core set bushcraft skills and knowledge.

You’ll begin by learning about the use of cutting tools and core woodcraft skills, then move onto a comprehensive guide to the most distinctly human of outdoor skills, firecraft, before learning about sheltercraft, bindcraft, and natural navigation. You’ll learn about procuring food and water, as well as identifying essential plants and trees, all while avoiding hazards and missteps.

This is a coherent collection of eminently practical know-how, across a range of topics and skill-sets, which together form a core of bushcraft competency for the well-rounded outdoorsperson.
