SURVIVAL expert Ray Mears will be visiting Marlborough on Tuesday to sign copies of his new book.
The 30-year-old has just completed another hugely popular television series, Ray Mears Bushcraft Survival, and he will be in Marlborough to sign copies of the £20 book that accompanies the TV series.
He will be at the White Horse Bookshop in the High Street from noon to 2pm.
Living off the land means eating whatever happens to be at hand. "Probably the most unusual thing I have had to eat was a torido worm, a kind of mollusc that bores its way into the wood in mangrove swamps," said Mears. "It looked disgusting but it tasted all right."
Mears is currently taking a break from TV work to help teach at his own school of wilderness bushcraft, Woodlore in East Sussex, but promised that he has more books and TV series planned.
