Survive and thrive in the wild with these 100 practical skills and
techniques for mastering the outdoors under any conditions
If there's one thing John Wayne admired, it was someone who could stand
on their own two feet and take care of themselves no matter what the day
might bring. As a lover of the outdoors, he understood the challenges
that come with living in the wild. It was a point of pride with Duke to
play so many pioneers and explorers in his films - people with the
skills that enabled them to master a life on their own far from the
edges of civilization.
The editors of The Official John Wayne Magazine are proud to publish
The Official John Wayne Handy Book of Bushcraft - just the thing you

The book includes 100 tips and techniques for surviving and thriving in
