Book excerpt: Fire can fascinate, inspire, capture the imagination and bring families and communities together. It has the ability to amaze, energise and touch something deep inside all of us. For thousands of years, at every corner of the globe, humans have been huddling around fires: from the basic and primitive essentials of light, heat, energy and cooking, through to modern living, fire plays a central role in all of our lives. The ability to accurately and quickly light a fire is one of the most important skills anyone setting off on a wilderness adventure could possess, yet very little has been written about it. Through his narrative Hume also meditates on the wider topics surrounding fire and how it shapes the world around us.

Book excerpt: There are many books about shooting Compound and Recurve bows but no book deals with the specific problems of the BAREBOW archer, as this book does. It presents a systematic, biomechanically efficient BAREBOW technique. A starting point to help you decide how you shoot and settle on your own shooting style, it will still serve as your guide for many years of competitive and enjoyable archery. Archery is a performance sport, no matter how good your aim if you fail in the shot execution, you miss. The shooting process is what makes you accurate and a biomechanically efficient BAREBOW technique will make this easier. The techniques described in this book are relevant to any barebow or traditional archer, not just Stringwalkers. Correct use of muscles, joints, and bones is needed to ensure energy is not wasted. This requires good alignment, proper use of archer's back muscles, and the transfer of the archer's effort into the back before allowing expansion to happen naturally. This book explains how to achieve this and details training methods and tools, including some notes for those participating in 3D and Field Archery.Target Panic is the most overlooked problem of BAREBOW archery. It is vital to know how to prevent it. The essential mental control is integrated throughout the description of the shooting process. Once you already have it, you have only two options: to conquer it or to suffer from it for the rest of your archery life. Consequently, Target Panic is addressed in depth. The module devoted to the mental side of BAREBOW archery includes an explanation of Target Panic and presents methods to reassert control and overcome it. The mental systems used to learn how to prepare yourself for competition and then perform under pressure are also explained.NOTE: This book does not set out to teach the very basics of how to shoot a bow. It is advisable to learn the early steps of shooting a bow under the supervision of a competent coach.
