Nature Bound Pocket Field Guide

NBPFG has good information and I fully appreciated the pictures of the different plants. It was written in such a manner that makes it easy to understand for Teens and Pre-teens who have a desire to learn about hiking and camping.

Concise, thorough and practical...

I have used this book since it came out in 1990 and continue to find it handy in the field. It covers everything you need to know for survival in the North American woods. Everyone who goes backpacking with me wants one! The photos of the edibles/poisonous plants are most excellent, as are the write-ups & historical uses. It easily fits in a cargo style pocket or in your pack. You'll find first aid and basic survival skills discussed in detail...no fluff.

Perhaps the best pocket size practical survival guide

This combines simple, easy to use instructions on basic survival actions that any hiker or camper can use with a great color-photo index and directions to edible and poisonous plants, and a first aid guide. If you only want to carry one little book, this is a great one to choose!

A great, portable plant identification guide.get it.

This Book has more edible and poisonous plant identification info than any other pocket guide i've ever seen.Where bigger tomes many times ue line drawings which are less than useless for identifying plants,Nature Bound has actual photos!Also brief preparation information and survival instructions that are sure to help someone that finds themselves lost in the wilderness.The fire starting in particular is codensed,but much better than I would have expected in a nature guide.The size is very handy;it will fit in the smallest buttpack, or even pocket.You will actually have it when you need it!I bought mine in 1987,and it's still the best i've found.
