Critics Review

“Core Bushcraft should be added immediately to every Bushcraft or Survival Skills library. Read it, enjoy the boost to your skills, regardless of your present skill level, and then place it squarely in the middle of your bookshelf so you can pull it out on a regular basis.” – Bruce Zawalsky, CD, author of Canadian Wilderness Survival
“Should be everyone’s starting point, from absolute beginners to those that have been making headway for quite some time … While it is easy to go into your local sporting goods store and purchase the first knife that looks cool, Paul walks you through each type of knife and why it might be useful for the type of techniques you hope to learn. Each subject in the book is given the same attention to detail … The perfect guide … Easy-to-follow photos and tips are top-notch and will help you on a trip when either some camping gear fails or when you simply want to bring less with you and use what nature provides.” – Traversing
