New Releases by Bear Grylls

The incredible true story of a Galilean stonemason who changed the course of the world forever, beautifully told through the eyewitness accounts of those who knew him best. This real-life story will never leave you. He lived and died over 2,000 years ago, fulfilling expectations that existed long before his birth, mystically foretold by astrologers for hundreds of years-yet the rulers of his day dreaded his coming. This humble builder-teacher became a magnet for the poor and down trodden, a symbol of love and mercy, who transformed the lives and restored the health and purpose in all who encountered him. The local elite and governing rulers eventually tortured him and put him to death in the most violent and public of ways. Yet that was only the beginning ... In the years since, billions of people have dedicated their lives to this man and have testified to his divinity and truth. To others, he is little more than a rebel who was killed by one of the most brutal empires in human history. How we each respond to this story dictates the course of our lives. And it all rests on the great mystery that occurred at the end of his life-a supernatural event that he had predicted with utter clarity. Did this humble stonemason tell the truth? Could one man really be the focal point of the universe? From the #1 international bestselling author of Mud, Sweat, and Tears and the face of adventure himself, Bear Grylls, this story will prepare you to make up your own mind. But wherever your journey takes you, this is arguably The Greatest Story Ever Told.

In the tradition of the million-copy-bestseller SAS Survival Guide, former SAS paratrooper Bear Grylls—the world's most famous survival expert—teaches the necessary skills for eating in the wild. "There's no getting away from it; I've eaten some pretty extreme things in my time—live tarantulas, raw goat testicles, elephant dung, you name it. In a situation when your life depends on it, you need to put your prejudices aside to keep your stomach filled and your strength up. Whether it's mastering the art of foraging and cooking up a tasty feast around the campfire or learning about the more extreme end of wild food (ever tried a scorpion kebab?), there's a lot to learn when it comes to dinner time in the wild. Extreme Food will teach you all the necessary skills and techniques to get your teeth into meals you might never have thought of as food in the first place—and, crucially, how to recognize plants and animals that might end up doing you more harm than good. In today's world, we rarely need to venture beyond the local supermarket and we turn our noses up at the thought of snacking on bugs and grubs. But out in the wild, Mother Nature has provided us with a plentiful supply of nutritious—if not always delicious—food for the taking. And when needs must, we just have to know where to look. Some of it might take you out of your comfort zone. Some of it might turn your stomach. But it's saved my life more than once. And one day, it might save yours . . ."—BEAR GRYLLS
