In-depth and valued guide - By: Robert W. Doughty, 27 Aug 2010 
If you think Ray Mears has cornered the bushcraft market, think again. Ray knows his stuff & makes for good reading & practice, but Mors goes further. This book gets deeper into a wide range of essential bushcraft activities, & gives you more of the vital little details that make the difference between real success & a passable effort. His lovely little hand drawn diagrams are really valuable too. Read & enjoy.
Bush Craft - Review - By: J. Read, 13 Nov 2009 I loved this book. I think there are several different kinds of bushcraft enthusiast. Some prefer hot climates, some broad leaf woods others pine forest. This book is ideal for people who prefer cold pine forest environments. A lot of the skills described can easily be transferred to other environments but it does cover some skills unique to pine forests. The only slight downside is that diagrams (although clearerin many ways) can lack a realism we expect from modern bushcraft manuals. Overall a good interesting reference to northern survival.
Very informative, yet Straight-forward and simple to understand. - By: Mr. J. R. Hadley, 06 Oct 2007 This is a great book for anyone wanting to learn bushcraft & survival skills. Mors Kochanski has broken the different aspects & skills down into simple stages, with easy to follow diagrams. I was particularly pleased to find that he uses non technical language to explain things. This book is full of useful information. A nice easy read & well worth the money.
More from Mors - By: , 13 May 2004 A book by a canadian guy who was teaching & living the skills he teaches when that Brit guy was stillin dippers! if you wanna learn the skills safetly & sensibly this is the book for you.
My question is that now Mors has retired when will he pen a second book?
if you like ray mears then you will love this guy - By: Js Rehwald, 30 Nov 2003 i bought this book a year or two ago & ive read many a so-called book on wilderness survival but this one is definitely up there with the best. even though the illustrations are pencil drawings they easily get the point across. mors kochanski is reputed to be one of the finest bushcraft instructorsin the northern hemisphere & this book does him proud. this book deals with skills that you really need like axe & knifecraft,shelter building & fire-lighting.this book doesnt teach you how to stay alivein jungle/desert which to be honest none of us are ever going to comein contact with during our lives! buy it now, you wont be disappointed!
