Forget reality TV stunts like eating bugs, the Ultimate Guide to Wilderness Living provides in-depth instructions and step-by-step photos of real survival skills—exactly what one needs to stay alive in the woods.

Finally, the authors explain how to bring all these skills together to live in the wilderness for days, weeks, months, or even years.
