In Fire, Water, Shelter, host of Canada TV’s Marshall Bushcraft, outdoor enthusiast Ryan Marshall delivers the fundamentals of traditional bushcraft with clear, concise instructions and full-color photography. It’s the perfect guide for anyone interested in building a solid foundation of outdoor skills, whether you’re looking to spend a weekend in the backcountry or surviving a natural disaster.
The art of bushcraft is not just about existing in an outdoor environment but interacting with it in a meaningful way. It’s returning to the basic skills that have kept humans alive for millennia—building fire, constructing a protective shelter, sourcing water, making and using tools, utilizing natural materials, surviving temperature extremes, and more.
Learn:
- Which natural materials are great for fire building
- Fire-starting tools for an easy spark
- How to start a fire in the rain
- Water filtration and sterilization methods
- Obtaining water from nature
- The best lightweight cooking tools
- What foods to pack for a trip
- Bushcraft tools to put on your pack list
- Tips for dressing and sleeping comfortably
- Helpful natural materials and how to find and use them
- Ropes, knots, and hitches
- Ten camp projects provide additional skills through illustrated step-by-step instructions
Compact and adventure-ready, Fire, Water, Shelter is your guide to flourishing in the great outdoors.
After almost dying on top of a mountain in his early 20s, outdoorsman Ryan Marshall decided to dedicate his time to learning everything he could about bushcraft and survival. For the last 10 years, Ryan has spent every other week of his life living in the woods, whether it’s +100°F (37°C) or -58°F (-50°C), facing challenges and extremes and learning along the way. His efforts have translated into Marshall Bushcraft, a show on Canada’s Wild TV network, and a strong social media following (@marshall_bushcraft) that looks to Ryan to learn outdoor skills and bushcraft. Ryan lives in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada and also teaches in-person survival skills courses to people of all ages.
