Bear Grylls shares the secrets of his years of fieldcraft in the ultimate guide to how to live outdoors. Learn about:

Hidden Dangers - What to look out for; the pitfalls that the seasoned field professional would know to avoid, because danger rarely announces its presence.

Bear's Secret Scouting Tips - Advice that only someone who has spent extended periods of time living in the wild can offer - lessons learnt the hard way!

Real-life Camp-Fire Stories - Short tales, mostly from Special Forces soldiers and past and present explorers, which illustrate the importance of learning from others' mistakes and good fortunes!

Training Exercises - Ways of getting your skills up to scratch before going out into the field. Train hard, fight easy.

Improvising in the Field - Sometimes you don't have the right tools with you. What to do when this happens - necessity is the mother of all invention!

It's all here, from how to pack the right gear for a trip into the wild, how to read a map properly and how to navigate the natural way. What to eat and how to build a fire to cook it. The only other thing you will need is this book!
