Hard to beat Boy Scout manual. Had an old copy from two
older brothers who were scouts. By the time I was 10, 1950 I had it committed to memory. It was a late 40's edition I believe. Paperback size and about an inch thick. Ebay and Amazon probably have them for $10 or less. Lots of good woodscraft not just how to eat bugs and bark.
