To Tread in Wild Places, 2nd Edition: An Introductory Guide to Wilderness Living Skills, Paperback/Sam Larson
Descriere
Description Have you ever wanted to learn what it takes to live in the woods with minimal supplies? In Sam Larson's first book, he'll teach you just that... Sam's first book "To Tread In Wild Places" was written to give the reader the essential skills that are necessary to live in the wilderness. Although it started as a guide book for 6th-8th grade students, it evolved into an all-around guide for people wanting to start exploring the wilderness. As a "survival book" enthusiast Sam collected stacks of books in his youth. He would read them cover to cover until their bindings buckled. Although Sam discovered dozens of books that he finds irreplaceable, he found that there wasn't a book that taught the collection of skills that he found most effective during the youth programs that he taught. He set out to write a book that was short enough to consume quickly, but thorough enough to communicate the skills.
