Hunting Knife Equipment

What are some good Wilderness Survival books/schools?
By wilderness survival I mean learning how to LIVE in the wilderness, I don’t mean just surviving until I’m rescued.
I’ve been wanting to learn wilderness survival for a long time, but I can’t seem to find any books that will really help me learn this.
I’ve looked at a couple of schools, like Tom Brown Jr’s Tracking School, but they are very expensive and they don’t teach that much information for the prices I’d have to pay for one class.
I really want to learn how to live in the wild with absolutely no modern equipment besides maybe a knife. This includes thing like making fire, fishing, hunting, finding edible plants, finding water. It doesn’t even have to be a school where I learn it, as long as I learn it.
Thanks Chris, I definitely agree with you. Books are kind of my last resort though. I’ve looked on craigslist for people in my area who want to learn this kind of stuff, but I haven’t found anyone. This hobbie/lifestyle really uncommon in my area I guess
PRACTICE…try reading the books for a foundation and try the stuff out in a controlled environment until you’re comfortable. Keep dropping the non-essentials until you reach the level you’re looking for. If you can find a mentor, great, but it’s such a commodity these days that few give away their knowledge free of charge. NOTHING WILL REPLACE ACTUAL TIME IN THE FIELD!! I wish you the best of luck and, yeah, Tom Brown is a great resource. His attitude towards this subject is admirable.
