In this fully illustated 4x6 pocket sized field guide, survival instructor Creek Stewart details countless resources that can be gleaned in a survival scenario from 8 of his favorite survival trees. From food, water, shelter, fire, cordage, tools, containers and adhesives, it's incredible what trees provide.
This 70 page manual is the culmination of over 20 years of training and testing. This book is not intended to be a tree identifiction guide. Rather, it should act as a suplement to other guides on the subject, offering survival specific information and insight that typically is not covered (or even mentioned) in the average identification guide.
Creek highlights survival skills and uses with photos, illustrations and even supplemental downloads for more detailed skills. Prepare to see trees from a unique perspective rarely brought to the written page!
