Books

We love books and see them as not just a good read but also an educational tool. The books by survival expert Lars Falt are seen as definitive works by an expert that has Walked the Walk. He shares his experiences and knowledge.

We carry something for everyone from the definitive Foraging Guide to a book on the many uses of Duct Tape. We also have one of the most popular but unusual books entitled Norwegian Wood Chopping & Stacking. The title may seem dry but it is a fabulous book and I read it in a single sitting. 

We also have books including the wonderful Ernest Journals which contain stories, histories and musings on many subjects that you will not have imagined or been aware of. These journals can be read from cover to cover or picked up during a few spare minutes.
