Awesome bushcraft stories
I’ve listened to this book roughly 5 times now and I absolutely love it, I can honestly drift away and imagine being on some bushcraft adventure with Tony as he’s sitting there telling you in great detail the unfolding events from one incredible personal account to the next. If you at all have a love for the outdoors, bushcraft, camping, adventure or survival then this is definitely a book worth getting, this isn’t a how to guide or survival book but more the life of someone who has spent their life doing such things, it really is worth a try!

Enjoyable and informative
Really enjoyed this man's account. Even if you're not a bushcrafter, I would recommend it, because it is really entertaining, and told with a refreshing lack of hubris... Definitely recommend it.

Read out by Microsoft text to voice...
Read out by Microsoft text to voice. Very robotic. Just terrible. I couldn't focus on the story.
