How to Build Your Dream Cabin in the Woods: The… by J. Wayne Fears
When you’re ready to go off grid, you could do a lot worse than consult J. Wayne Fear’s practical and interesting guidebook. He does a thorough job of covering the important factors to consider when investing in property, but tailors the book beautifully to the back country get-away. Very detailed, but also accessible and engaging.
Surprisingly limited in scope and recommendations. Very mainline, little alternative considerations.
I've heard the words "dutch oven" all my life, and I never knew where those cast-iron pots got the name until I read Fears' book. In this book, Fears covers everything from A to Z on dutch ovens, how to prepare them for cooking, how to cook with them, what kinds of recipes you can try and use, and how to clean them up for the next use. If you really want to have some fun and learn a lot about dutch-oven cooking, this book is a must.
If you are ever lost in the woods, J. Wayne Fears is the one you want to come find you. If you want to prevent being lost in the woods, this is a great book to read. If you're going into the woods and not planning to get lost, you'd be wise to pack this in your daypack. Survival depends on doing a few things right, and this book will tell you what those few things are that can be the difference between life and death in a survival situation.
