Outback Survival covers what you need to do, and how, to survive in the great Australian outdoors. The 230-pages take you through every aspect of a survival situation from bush tucker and bushcraft to off-road driving and survival kits. Based on Bob’s tried and tested Big 5 survival techniques, supported by diagrams and photos, he explains:
Water: how to find, purify and transport
Warmth: fire and wind proofing
Shelter: against rain, cold, wind and sun
Signals: by day and night, audible, visual and directional
Food: what is available, foraging and fishing
This book contains the edited proceedings of papers presented at the Conservation through the Sustainable Use of Wildlife conference in Brisbane in September 2016. It examines what tangible benefits sustainable use of wildlife had delivered, what the impediments were, what data needed to be collected and what governance structures needed to be erected to enable sustainable use to deliver on its promise.

Australia’s arid Outback is teeming with life…when you know where to look.
From taipan snakes and pelicans to hippie activists and hardline miners, John Read brings to life the characters, creatures and cultures of the Outback. Through vivid, personal stories he shares his experience as an ecologist making new discoveries; challenging conventional approaches to pastoralism, mining, tourism and environmental management; and witnessing the precarious balance of nature as species are pitted against the harsh climate of the Outback.
