Most problems at camp are decided before you arrive.

A kitchen stove teaches you how to cook; an outdoor campfire teaches you how to adapt and improvise. You can cook well at home on a kitchen stove. You can do things well in the environment you are in. What you may never have done is spend a night in the bush with no house to return to, relying on skills and judgment rather than modern comforts and a roof over your head.

This book starts there.

The Farmer's Bushcraft Handbook is a beginner's guide for capable people-people with practical outdoor instincts but lacking camping experience. Written by someone who grew up in a family of farmers that has worked the land for generations along the Sierra Madre Mountains of the Philippines-with no access to electricity, where reading the weather, starting fires with wet wood, and finding water were daily necessities, not hobbies. Calibrated for tropical and subtropical conditions, it covers what actually matters before the first trip and the five trips after it.

What you will be able to do by the end of this book:

  • Choose and read a campsite before you put the pack down
  • Build and maintain a fire in wet conditions
  • Set up camp in the right order, in daylight, every time
  • Treat water from any tropical source safely
  • Identify and manage common wild hazards-insects, snakes, and whatever shares your campsite at night
  • Identify and respond to ten common field injuries using evidence-based protocols
  • Read cloud stages, wind shifts, and cold-air drainage before weather arrives
  • Sleep outdoors comfortably without waiting to see what goes wrong
