Ray mears my outdoor life passaround

Then heres your chance.
I just finished this book, and figured others here might want to read it. So I thought Id try to make a book passaround.




It works like this:
Ill ship it to the first one who is interested. That person then has to write their name or MTO alias in the cover after reading it, and then send it on to the next one on the list.
Making a post with a few words with your opinion on the book wont hurt either, but is not required.

List format:

That might have been my fault, to update the plugin on the forum you have to uninstall the existing version first.
The difficult we do immediately, the impossible takes a little longer.

I'm not getting the book at all at this point - there's already existing forum conspiracy as proved by some actions from earlier this year  :twak:  :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Moved - but moving AGAIN this weekend - still in Mot though. I love it here. :)
You can read my copy of Ray Mears if you like.

Apologies to all
- I am actually reading it but I have been really busy with other reading and writing tasks during the past few weeks and found very little time for the Mears book.

I hope to finish it in the next couple of days and have it posted to Kirk13

The book starts with a summary of his early life, and explains how he got into the whole bushcraft scene.
It then talks about what happened behind the scenes at various of his tv shows - so it may be good to see these shows, with the book.

Its a bit different from other biographies isnt it?
He hasnt really done one big exiting thing like many other famous explorers and survivalists who has written their biographies. Instead he has done many small adventures and has aquired tons of knowledge that in total makes him a very interesting man.
