Have you wondered why you should start homesteading and become independent? I went on that journey myself over the last fourteen years and I have learned quite a few things. I put all those things together and wrote a book!
The Prepper’s Survival Navigation: Find Your Way with Map and Compass as Well as Stars, Mountains, Rivers and Other Wilderness Signs by Walter Glen Martin is a great tool to explore the world around you. It is a resource book, a tool, and a great learning book for using maps, compasses, and other ways to find your way around. He also talks about wilderness survival while using these tools.
