The Bushcraft Field Guide to Trapping, Gathering, and Cooking in the Wild SRO9776

If you're heading out into the woods and want to know how actually to feed yourself without a grocery store nearby, this is the book you want in your pack. The Bushcraft Field Guide to Trapping, Gathering, and Cooking in the Wild is basically a survival cookbook and hunting manual rolled into one handy, pocket-sized guide. Staying fed is often the hardest part of being out in the wild, and this book takes the guesswork out of it by showing you exactly how to find, catch, and cook your own food.

Written by survival expert Dave Canterbury, the guide is packed with common-sense advice that actually works when you're tired, hungry, and far from home. It teaches you how to set simple traps, find edible plants using clear color photos, and cook over a campfire using whatever you have on hand. Instead of long, technical lectures, you get easy-to-follow drawings and straightforward tips that focus on getting a meal ready with as little struggle as possible.

Because it’s designed to be a trail companion, the book is built for portability. At roughly 5.5 x 7.5 inches—about the size of a standard trail map or a small tablet—it is small enough to toss into a backpack side pocket or a cargo pouch. It’s rugged enough to use while you're actually working with your hands and essentially acts like having a mentor in your pocket, helping you work smarter rather than harder, so you can enjoy a hot meal under the stars. Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned hiker, it provides the peace of mind that comes with knowing how to live off the land.

• Real-World Skills: It teaches you how to set simple traps, find edible plants (with color photos so you don't pick the wrong thing), and cook over a campfire.
• Built for the Outdoors: Its compact footprint is designed to fit your gear, making it easy to carry without adding bulk to your kit.
