Essential Bushcraft Review: A must book for anyone in bushcraft - Ray wrote a great book here for beginners and seasoned vets. The thing I like best about it is that he covers. standard and different ways to approach the different topics of the book. A lot of these I was unaware of, and I can't wait to get out and try them. The book is a little dated in some of the gear he recommends, but that doesn't mean that it is not useful. I like the recommendations he has for boots. He talks about the jungle environment and makes the point that the Military Jungle boots that were used largely in Vietnam are a great boot for using in wet/dry climates. (Got to pick up a pair of the Military's) I have a pair of Blackhawks but I remember the U.S. issue were tough boots. Just one of the many different points I picked up. This is a great book to have in your library. Review: Candidate for Best Wilderness Survival Instruction Book Ever - I have been studying, practicing, and teaching wilderness survival techniques for over forty years and own a collection of over two hundred survival guidebooks. Essential Bushcraft is, IMO, the best I have ever read. Many such books appear to be written by authors who simply rehash information from other survival books. Ray Mears clearly writes from extensive personal experience and study. I know of no other survival writer who discusses the difference between a sip well and a gypsy well or how to safely prevent a bow saw from skipping by inserting one's arm through the bow when starting a cut. These are obscure but valuable techniques known only by experts who dedicate years of their lives to learning and practicing their subject. Whether or not Ray Mears has written "The Best" wilderness survival book is surely a matter for debate, but, as far as I am concerned, anyone wishing to write a better survival guide than this has a herculean task ahead of them. ## Features - International products have separate terms, are sold from abroad and may differ from local products, including fit, age ratings, and language of product, labeling or instructions. - New - Mint Condition - Dispatch same day for order received before 12 noon - Guaranteed packaging ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,091,965 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,155 in Hiking & Camping Instructional Guides #86,647 in Health, Fitness & Dieting (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 572 Reviews | ## Images ![Essential Bushcraft - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81CVodna0kL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must book for anyone in bushcraft *by G***Y on February 16, 2024* Ray wrote a great book here for beginners and seasoned vets.

My only problem was that I ordered the book on the 10th of December, and received it on the 24th. I'm sorry, but I can't believe that even if sent via pony, and rider, that it takes that long to get anywhere in the U.S. If you can't send it out right away, let the customer know, but don't say that you've sent it, and say that it's been sent out, if it hasn't. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/52863517-essential-bushcraft](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/52863517-essential-bushcraft) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-05-21*
