Survival Lilly It was written by John 'Lofty' Westman, former SAS and survival consultant. It was written after he finishen his service, and want into private consultant.
we say the same :P
How many languages do you know?
Please give me the sad book
In the U.S., it all starts with the Boy Scouts Of America Handbook (the older versions), it covers roughly 80% of most basic survival books! Love your videos! And your dog!
Love that you go for the science accurate herb and plant books! Thanks again Lilly for your videos. can't wait till you write your own book.
The logbook at the end is worth gold. I've got one too, writing down my findings, what worked and what didn't :)
I've started writing my own as well. It's mostly stuff that I want to remember and don't already have in my head, which is a lot of stuff.
nice vid,great selection of books,thanks for the heads up on your favourite.
Great video Lilly, +1 on the Les Stroud book. The psychology of survival is just as important! Thanks for the videos I love them!
Outstanding Lilly! A lot of great information, you are a store house of knowledge!
I'm trying to watch all your videos, they inspire me to head back out into nature each time I watch.
Thank you for making Dax such a intricate part of each lesson.
I would think Les Stroud is a strong inspiration for you channel. Your channel is very reminiscent of his show "Survival Man", where he was his own cameraman as well. Getting all those different angle shots, I can only imagine the meticulousness that goes into it. On top of that, you're editing your own videos as well. It must be exhausting! I applaud you for a job well done!
thanks for your video, just love them, great to show your books, like the comic book too !
Thanks Lilly for sharing. Impressive collection.
Thanks for sharing which books you recommend and why, which was really interesting. That diary looks excellent and it was wonderful to see that children's survival guide and how well used and loved it obviously was :)
Terrific selection of books or manuals ! Enjoy your channel very much also ! I also like the wY shooting and hunting is part of your love for the outdoors , just like myself fishing and hunting ran in tandem with being in the woods.
Lily, loved the last two videos from home. Great job, makes you more real.
I got hooked on your channel, after your bushcraft bed fell apart during the night and you almost froze. The next morning, it looked like you were about to break down into tears. From this point, i admired your endurance and will to stick to your bushcraft aims and channel. Your tenacity to learn and demonstrate your growing skills have kept me as a loyal subscriber. You are building one of my favorite books! Thanks, Lily! --- Clark
Loving the videos Lilly!
I had a couple of these but I had to get some of the others you showed. Thanks again for all the info, much appreciated.
Nice collection of books! Lots of good books there Lilly
we can hear dax snoring. :)
+Chris LOL...
+Chris Dax can't sleep through the making of the video. He has to contribute more than that! :)
A dog's snoring is one of my favorite sounds. Holding on to my dog while I was kicking heroin and cocaine in bed was the one thing that got me through it, I just felt her heartbeat with my hand and listened to her snore and I somehow felt sort of okay, when by myself I'd be totally losing it.
DougglesMagnificent My new puppy snores. I started laughing the first time I heard it.
dax is dead now
thanx for sharing your survival library, i am trying to read as many books on the subject as possible, nearly finished reading Lofty Wiseman's book so will be on the look out for another so its good to have recommendations.
Oh my god, those Ducktales survival cards were one of my favourite things I collected as a child. I still remember some great fantasies I had about trying the things explained in them. Thanks for reminding me of it.
Another great video. I like them about your personal life Lilly.
Great library. I may expand my own personal library. Great vid. Great advice Ms Lilly. God bless you and all you do. Thanks
Thanks for sharing. My personal favourite is still Bushcraft by Ray Mears. I find it amazing that he was allowed to make a coffee table style book that early in his career. Information is easy to grasp when it's accompanied by beautiful illustrations and photos.
Thanks Lilly! That was a super helpful video :)
Hi Mr Dax, good to see you. A fascinating set of books which must contain so much information, it's just recalling it for use in the field which is my problem. Keep up the great videos.
That first book you had from when you were a kid is awesome! Kind of off topic, but when I was a kid, I got into Manga drawing. Cartoon drawing Japanese style. Anyways, my mom bought me one and I still have it and it's still the best book I have own for drawing even though I still don't know how to draw but it's also detailed and broken down. Thanks for the video!
I also grew up reading the same ducks survival book!!! :) Watching it in your video brought me great memories...
Very nice. I might get the Bushcraft and the Les Stroud one.
I've only just realised that I need to learn everything to do with survival, as I tend to find myself going on adventures in my local small woods. Luckily, the woods in my town are very small and easy to get out of. This video made me rethink about safety and what would happen if i got lost. If this was to happen I wouldn't know what to do and how to resolve any issue. Thank you for this video.
Enjoyed this video, I will be getting some of these books to read, Thank You.
A great collection of books, thank you for sharing.
Dax is the best!! Thanks Lilly for another great video, I love les stroud too!!
Those are nice books and it sounds like they have valuable information on surviving in the wilderness. I have to look up some of those books and see about ordering atleast one to study from. You have gained so much knowledge from the books and the material you learned from the internet, and television. Dax was such a sweet dog and you must have loved him so much and miss him now that he is gone, but not forgotten. I have a dog which I feel the same way about and he just popped up at my place one day and I learned early that he was very smart and we bonded quickly. He is a young dog and I just try to keep him safe since he like to chase cars.
I really like this video format. If these videos take less effort, please make some more. This format feels like I am hanging out with a friend talking about interesting books, which is one of the great things about many TH-cam videos.
Alright!!! Thanks Lilly for this video, I have anxiously awaiting for this video. I was wondering, the journal/book you have been writing, ever thought about publishing it at one point? I bet it would be a good read.
Hi Lilly, One of the best survival books I have read is Cody Lundin's book 98.6 Degrees. It really gets to the basics of staying alive until help arrives. Another book called Deep Survival is about the psychology of survival and how survival situations occur. It is very very good and important for anyone who makes their living teaching these skills.
Thanks for the great video.
Hi Lily!
I would like to give you congratulations on your channel and work! I talk from Brazil and here you have great fans! These last two videos in his home were great! Knowing of your day and the books you read was very interesting!
Thank you for sharing!

Ps: Sorry erros! My English is the google translator.. rsrss
Always remember the old 'Combat & Survival' magazine in the UK. Had all of them at one time and some of the info in it was very good.
I learned from Mors Kochanksi in Scouts as a kid! I knew you must have some connection to him when I saw you using the term "supershelter". My scout leaders were all his students and they taught me everything I know.
My personal favorite outdoor manual is the Handbook for Boys Fifth Edition from the late 1940's. Yes, an older version of the boy scout handbook. I found a vintage copy at the local book store for $10.
Your idea of writing your own book - writing down those excerpts of other books - that are the most meaningful to you is a great idea. Sort of like a cook collecting favorite recipes, then making notes on what works or doesn't work for you. We were taught to make notes of what we learned - almost like a diary, so we could refer back. Thanks for the video. Regards to DAX from Rita and Taffy, my two greyhounds.
I've been a Marine so long never thought about a survival book, great info will get on soon!
I did a video on this showing my books as well several months ago. I have most the same books you have. Great selection you have there! All the best! Dawn
Great idea to review your books for us. My collection is slightly different but I have the bushcraft by Mors, and a book on plants for my area, I want to get a copy of Les Stroud's. Thank you for sharing, honest and well done video
Hey Lilly,
A fun and great series of books I found is the
Foxfire Books.
They are a series of books about life in the Appalachian Mountains here in America.
The interesting thing is all the information was gathered by high school students from old people who lived off the land. They cover just about everything you can think of. From selecting the proper place to build a cabin to metallurgy. How to build and create barrels, wagons, tack for draft animals, and even flint lock guns and gun powder. Soap, washing clothes, even moonshine! lol
I have found them to be very informative. You would like them. The first 5 books are packed full of good information.
The method of boiling water you mentioned works fine with the average waterproof shell jacket too. As long as you don't get the hot stones directly against the cloth.
Bushcraft is an awesome book. Got it second hand, and haven't even read it through, but it's super informative for backpacking.
Very good info Lilly, I think you should think about getting your book in print. From a German in the USA. Thanks
John McCann, Dave Canterbury, and Cody Lundin has a bunch of good books as well. I have also used US military survival manuals and old boy scout camping books.
+Tony Hyden The US military uses whats called the FM 21-76. It hasn't changed much since world war 2 and is very similar to the sas manual. I also get quite a bit of knowledge from old boy scout field manuals and always scour the used book shops for them.
Loving the huey duey and louey book!
That is a good looking collection.
John and Geri Mcpherson have some good primitive skills books out there also. They have been doing this since the 1980's if I remember correctly.
I've recently stumbled across your channel and I want to tell you what a jewel it is. Everything you do is interesting, tasteful and well done. I enjoy all you do, keep up the quality programming and thank you for letting us enjoy your life.
Thanks for the list! Btw, I'm a new subscriber and have been marathoning your playlists👍
Lily another great book , not so much on survival , is norweigan wood stacking chopping and drying the scadinavian way. I really like it and reccomend it to anyone.
I love hearing Dax's soft snore!
It was mentioned awhile back but "6 Ways In 12 Ways Out" is another good one to have.
I am very impressed with all of your videos! You should publish your book and I promise I will buy it! Keep up the good work!!!
The Les Stroud book is very popular and enjoyable. Keep up good work!
I've not had a chance to get into it seriously but nice to see others thinking about permaculture experimentation as well. Very cool topic. Good luck with it!
Very interesting video, Lilly, thanks :)! I have the SAS book, but a tiny version of it (thankfully with all the info though). I also have Dave Canterbury's book, which is definitely worth buying too.
Have you typed your own handwritten book yet?
Ps, I love how you can hear Dax snore in the background :D.
Excellent collection. Good thing about books...you can still read them when the computer/internet/electricity doesnt work. WOW!...Dax is a heavy sleeper....
Great review as usual, very helpful. Reading the SAS survival book now, and was planning on getting one about edible plants. I will have to check out Les Stroud's book as well. I really liked his show compared to some of the other survival shows.
Love to hear Dax snoozing, wish I could be there to talk (no pervs) I have lived in high country for weeks and looks very similar to your videos. Be well Lilly
Enjoyed this video. I've read several of those books but there are a couple I'll have to get. atb Lilly
The SAS guide also comes in a small pocket edition that is great for the back pack. i think I picked copies of it up for about $4 each on Amazon a few months back and sent them to my sons. I picked up my first SAS copy at a yard sale 15 years ago or so. My first "survival" book was a boyscout book written in the 30's or 40'....then a set of books I got for Christmas 1977 called _Free for the Eating_ and _More free fr the Eating (wild edibles). There are also many military guides available online for free. Check out Internet Archive for them and other bushcraft books as well. good vid Lilly!
+Survival Lilly have you looked at the old FoxFire books? It shows everything from growing a garden to making a homestead and even making a wagon wheel. It shows everything even medicine, just think of all common knowledge from 1800 and thats it!
+cody moss p.s. Lilly, your awesome, keep up the good work, dank je
The SAS Survival book also comes in a pocket version. That has all the good stuff as the full size book.
Thanks Lilly.A great selection.ATB
Colin Towell has a good survival book. Very similar to the SAS one, but more up to date and with prettier pictures.
I really like that vintage kid's survival book though.
I love the snoring dog!
I recommend the adventures guide to the outdoors
I need to get my hands on one of those Donald Duck Survival books in english!
Lilly, informative and useful, as all your videos are. Is Dax practicing his survival sleeping?
Very useful information, thank you!
A nice collection of books, reading on bushcraft / survival is something i'm doing a lot of now ~Peace~
+Zed Outdoors
Via books or electronic ?....Books are great cos they dont require electricity to work...
@@RDPproject yea I don’t know why but books just feel way better than reading something online. It’s more satisfying I think.
Got the first edition of this in the 80s when I was a lot younger, brilliant read
GREAT VIDEO!! I just ordered three survival books...I ordered the sea survival handbook, bushcraft 101 and 200 survival hacks with basic materials
sas****
I have read a couple of them. I agree that the Kochanski book is a good place to start for bushcrafters :)
Thanks - Martin
I would like to see some videos on turning items into useful survival items, like tin cans in to stoves.
for your journal, consider "rite in the rain," they make water proof paper books. I have been using them in my uniform and range bag for years. I am writing the "book of nightmares" in one.
Thank you for sharing you survival library. I have some of those books as well and while they share much common knowledge it seems you can always learn something new if you pick up another book! I liked the first book you got as a child and it shows how children can shape their entire life on something so basic if it inspires their imagination. That is great in and of itself. Larry Dean Olson is another primitive skills master and I have two of his books. He also lived in the wilderness of Utah for long periods of time, well worth the studies. You might want to pick up a copy of the USAF AFR 64-4 Instructor Survival Manual. It covers almost anything you would wish to know and is available online in a FREE pdf . I have the large 1985 edition and they can be ordered from the US Government Printing Office I believe. Nice to see DAX sleeping so soundly. How old is he anyway?
Thank you for your great video's! I clicked on the commercial just 2 support you! Best wishes
Wow Lilly..Dax gave the meaning "Dog tired" a whole new meaning..lol..Dax can sleep thru anything...I'm impressed.. Interesting choices of books..I'll start getting one thru your store. Thanks.. Also did you ever think of staying out for a week in the bush to apply what you have learned?
Hi Lilly, I actually bought the SAS Survival Guide pocket edition, which is small enough to fit in the palm of my hand. Because it's so small I wonder if it leaves out any information compared to your edition. Do you know if there is much difference between them? I like the pocket edition because it easily fits into my bugout/camping bag and there are so many skills to be learned, I'm not certain I could memorize them all, so it's nice to be able to keep it with me.
I read a lot of books on bushcraft, plants, trap making. Great video. Starting soon I'm going to leave in the woods for a year. Been my dream for a long time. Hunt for my food, fish and garden. Ronnie, Texas.
Will you be doing that in Texas?
CrankyPants Yes north Texas.
+RDM1978 What part? That's neat. Living in Texas and reading your skills can definitely appreciate that POV.
ZyPhReX I live in Mineral Wells. Just something I want to do for years. I'll continue to read while I'm out there. But first hand experience is the best. Trial by fire. Going to build a fully in closed shelter out of natural materials.
+RDM1978 That should be quite an adventure. Will you be connecting to the Internet and giving video updates during that time, or will you be totally unplugged for the year? I'd hate to be living in a primitive shelter when tornado season starts, (although it never really ended this year, did it?). The storms always seem to be worse in that area than what we get in Fort Worth. Anyway, best of luck to you. I hope the adventure is everything that you want it to be. -Linda
Great video. Reminds me of why I originally chose to subscribe to your channel. Best regards!
I'd love to see another video on your survival book collection, have your opinions changed regarding the books overall?
I love your videos and I love your dog!!
Your devotion to the subject is impressive.
Hey Lilly,
nice collection! Most of them are also in my bookshelf. I recently read some of the old field guides for the woodsman and camper written at the turn of the 20th Century. It seems that a lot of the new books are inspired or a poor copy of those classics.
As an outdoorswoman and survival enthusiast you should definitely have a look at them:
Woodcraft and Camping by Nessmuk
The Book of Camping & Woodcraft by Horace Kephart
Woodcraft A Guide to Camping and Survival by E.H.Kreps
Viele Grüße aus Deutschland
Love your vids keep going
I've got that Jon 'Lofty' Book on the thumbnail but mines like the size of my palm and fits right into my pocket. It's a brilliant book :D
Same
My first "Survival" book was my Boy Scout Handbook and the Boy Scout Field Book. They aren't as developed as an SAS or Army Ranger manual but they did provide the fundamentals. Kind of like your Disney book.
Lily it's time for you to publish a book or series of books
True
You have a healthy obsession. Hard to turn the brain off sometimes, i know; even when it is time for sleep. Great library of books to have on hand for reference and review, especially if shtf. If electric power goes out and you can't turn your electronics on it's good to have the hard copy available instead of just in a computer file.
I am going to look at the playlist on your channel to look for the title about survival herbs you mentioned. I have been trying to get into that more lately. Thanks, Lilly...now go get some sleep.
[funny when you kicked your sandles off in the beginning to get them out of the shot. White socks is okay but white socks with sandles is a little nerdy...good decision.]
I can also recomment the SAS survival handbook, it is really full of practical information. Greets! Sebas
1:54 My sister got me that book last Christmas. Most of it is common scene stuff but I like it.
I admire your honesty, i would be too "lazy" to make a video on how to make buckskins too.
that was interesting and awesome. I loved the ending too. I miss that ol dog.. Lilly I know you'll refine your book and release it... Right?
Looks like I have some more reading aheadThanks Lilly
Great Video, you just helped me choose my next book, Thanks! Oh and put me down for a copy of your book when it's done......
