    Another great read if you can find it is the book by Jack Kearney, Tracking : A Blueprint for Learning How.

    thanks for the heads up

    Been to his classes, learned a lot of good stuff that added tools to my toolbox. I also know a few web footed types who went on the Navy's dime and most negative thing I've heard is "Tom's a bit out there" but they also admit to learning a lot of good stuff as well.

    Weather you are looking to learn wilderness survival skills or tracking alot better options exsist that Tom Brown.

    If you are looking at taking a survival course there are several great instructors throughout the US. Much better and with alot less contoversy that Brown. My personal opinion is that he may have skills but he is a fraud.


    For tracking David Scott-Donelan, Joel Hardin are the best.

    I enjoyed Tracker and read many good tips in his book about how to teach your children not to get lost.
