Living Off the Land: A Manual of Bushcraft compiled from articles contributed to "Salt", the Army Education Journal - 1944

Written in 1944. This book may save a soldier's life. It may even save your own. "Living Off The Land" is a practical guide to bushcraft, written by bushmen -- by men who have learned the things they tell you in the stern school of experience. "Living Off The Land" does what the title indicates. It tells you what to do if you get "bushed"; how to find food and water where the quest looks hopeless; how to guard your health; how to avoid dangers and extreme hardship. It is full of fascinating facts and out-of-the-way knowledge. "Living Off The Land" has been made available for general publication by the Army Education authorities, who produce "Salt", the Army Journal.
