You don't have to be Paul Bunyan to build a wilderness home. In
fact, you don't even need an ax, and nails are not an absolute
necessity. What you'll need is Wilderness Shelters, the definitive
guide to building log cabins, camping shelters, blockhouses, and
more.Here are illustrated instructions for everything from felling
trees to splitting logs, from laying foundations to insulating
roofs. The book also shows you how to fashion indoor and outdoor
furniture for your rustic retreat, including tables, benches,
bookcases, beds and ice chambers. And it teaches you to obtain food
from nature and dine in comfort.With its wealth of ideas,
Wilderness Shelters shows that wilderness living can be more
efficient than gadget-ridden urban lifestyles.

The first species to be domesticated, dogs have been selectively
bred over thousands of years. Today they’re man’s best friend
– but while many are pets, many, too, are working animals: for
the police, for the blind, as guard dogs, as sheepdogs, pulling
sleds and as therapy animals. Arranged in chapters covering
physical characteristics, senses, lifecycle, communication,
behaviour and working dogs, Dogs is a hugely informative visual
celebration. From huskies to German shepherds, from collies to
Chihuahuas, Shih Tzu to Jack Russell Terriers, Labradors to
Bullmastiffs to Dachshunds, the book includes a huge range of
breeds. With fascinating captions on every page, even dog lovers
will learn something new. Dogs is a brilliant examination in 150
outstanding colour photographs.
