I have a copy of "The Survival Handbook" by Ray Mears, available.

This is the much sought after 1990 first book Ray wrote and NOT a version of his later "Outdoor Survival Handbook" which was printed in 1992 and is now available as a reprinted edition.

This book was published in 1990 by Oxford Illustrated Press, ISBN 0-946609-88-8 and is in absolutely superb condition complete with dust jacket - unused and mint :shock:

Chapter headings:
Possibles,
Shelter and Protection,
Fire,
Water,
Plants,
Hunting,
Tracking,
Trapping and Fishing,
Cooking, Preserving and Storing food,
Cordage, Basketry, Pottery and Glue,
Stone and Bone working,
Hideworking,
Hitting the Trail.

This is a beautifully written and illustrated book with some colour photographs, destined to be a collectable!

Offers please, for purchase or possible swap, by PM.
