This is a very good introduction of what you should expect to learn and know if you choose to be out in the wild. If you are wanting to start out learning basic bushcraft and wilderness survival skills you will get a good taste in this book. Advanced Bushcraft expands the 5 Cs model to encompass critical tools, equipment and skills to extend your stay in the wilds, teaching you much of what you would need to know about living sustainably long-term in the woods. If you think that maybe Raisinettes grow in the woods, this primer might prove useful as it touches on pretty much everything to which the title refers.A mile wide and an inch deep the book covers all the areas you would need without going in depth enough, for this reader at least, to be confident he would be able to reproduce the desired results.

Like I said earlier this book is mainly about the basic and most important information for bushcraft in the wilderness.
