À propos de la deuxième de couverture

In this essential guide to living wild, Bear Grylls reveals the secrets of his years of fieldcraft experience. This is the information you really need to know about living in the field from the man who has passed 21 SAS selection, climbed Everest and survived in some of the most inhospitable regions on Earth. In his inimitable style, Bear has thrown out everything that's boring about scouting and fieldcraft and concentrated only on what's exciting, inspirational and a little bit edgy. Learn about:

·Hidden Dangers - the pitfalls that the seasoned field professional would know to avoid, because danger rarely announces its presence.

·Bear's Secret Scouting Tips - advice that only someone who has spent extended periods of time living in the wild can offer - lessons learnt the hard way!

·Training Exercises - ways to get your skills up to scratch before going into the field.

·Improvising in the Field - what to do when you don't have the right tools with you - necessity is the mother of all invention!

·Real-life Campfire Stories - tales from Special Forces soldiers and past and present explorers, which illustrate the importance of learning from others' mistakes and good fortunes!

It's all here, from mastering the art of making the perfect campfire and constructing the best camp, to navigating safely through all terrains in all weathers - with or without a map ... The only other thing you'll need is this book!
