About this listen
Inside you will find stories, specific exercises, and direct teachings that are even now used by Special Forces, survival experts, law enforcement agents, and first responders around the world to stay safe, aware, and alert in any situation. Nate details his direct experience , shares anecdotes of training with the masters, and spells out specific exercises and training to deepen your own path to deeper survival skills, awareness, and the way of the Scout.
From the Gurkhas of the Himalayas to the Shadow Wolves of the American Southwest to the Ninja of medieval Japan to the ancient Fiana of Ireland to the Apache Scouts, there have always been bands of protectors, master of awareness and survival, and teachers of a deeper way of being safe, dialed into our deepest levels of intuition, and ultimately connected to the flow of nature around us. Inside you will find their stories, methods, and ways revealed, some for the very first time.
This is the first volume of a planned multi-volume set entitled Scoutcraft, a series unlocking the secrets of the scouts throughout history and from around the world.
"Nate Summers' Shadow Survival is a fantastic survey of ancient, universal practices, and detailed, practical and fun exercises to help the reader merge seamlessly into the landscape. Great perspectives on how far people can go in their connection to nature." Jon Young, author of What the Robin Knows
"A unique and important resource among wilderness skills books, Shadow Survival shines a light on the tremendously valuable, yet less often taught, aspects of becoming a deeply attuned outdoorsperson. Nate shares eye-opening stories and helpful tools to enhance your safety, awareness, and wilderness wisdom. When you put Nate's advice to practice, you'll peel back the curtain on a hidden world of nature skills that will enhance all aspects of your life." -Jason Knight, cofounder of Alderleaf Wilderness College and author of The Essential Skills of Wilderness Survival
"This book starts where other survival guides stop. The author does an excellent job describing core skills that humans used for generations not only to survive but to thrive as they lived a wild, free life connected with the natural world around them. These skills are just as relevant today as they were a thousand years ago. This book will change your life". -David Barbur, veteran, former police officer, and author of The Tye Caine Wilderness Mystery Series.
"Nate guides you in a personal, practical, and accessible way to a sacred and mysterious path that will inspire you to take a step or support you if you are on your way." -Ben Sanford, founder of Tribal Edge Primal Arts and instructor for Scout and Scout Protector at the Tracker School
"Inspired by the ancient archetype of the scout protector, Shadow Survival lays out a practical pathway for keeping your family safe in a changing climate and world. I appreciate Nate holistic perspective on topics such as safety, situational awareness and emergency preparedness, and how he grounds it in nature, knowledge of place and lineage". -Chris Gilmour, Outdoor Skills Instructor, Tracker & Martial Artist - ChrisOutdoors.ca

The world's most dangerous book. A timeless piece that would undoubtedly disrupt the plans of any authoritarian regime.

There are many ways it can be done, there are many ways victories can be achieved. In war, there are no rules, there are no laws. There are only strategies and tactics. A divided people can be isolated and devoured. Survival depends upon the masses forming one mind.

The words 'tactical awareness' and 'intuition' stood up to me.
I loved this book, its a great introduction to tactical and awareness training. One of my favorite chapters is the one about bird language. The exercises have a big impact and the author lists other books and programs to learn more in depth about specific topics.
