I must have bought 20 copies of this book - 18 of those I have given to friends, one resides in my map case in the 4WD and one pristine edition remains on my book shelves. I bought the last two copies directly from the author. This is not some stupid "SAS Survival Manual" directed at wannabe Rambos or 13 year old boys this is probably the definitive bush and survival manual for Australia.

Because the author self published once initial sales dropped off it went out of print but I am delighted he has now republished it as an e-book here:

Scroll to the bottom of the webpage; "Australian Bush Survival Skills" by Kevin Casey.

If you buy this as an electronic copy (PDF) *please* don't pirate it or give it to friends - Kevin is not a wealthy man and deserves to be paid for his work and $10 is not asking a lot.
