Those Boy Scout Manuals are amazing!

Paynesgrey:
The Boy Scout handbook is a great start.  I'd also suggest the Foxfire books.

They cover everything from how to boil a hog to what roots you can eat and when to how to make moonshine to canning tomatoes to ghost stories to making your own small smelter and making flintlocks how to make that possum really tasty.

Safe and Sound: How Not to Get Lost in the Woods and How to Survive If You Do by Gordon Snow (Sep 1, 1997)   

and

Ultimate Guide to Wilderness Living: Surviving with Nothing But Your Bare Hands and What You Find in the Woods by John McPherson and Geri McPherson (May 28, 2008)

But remember, different woodlands need different approaches!  The Amazon jungle isn't the Pacific Northwest, although there are certain universal principals!

If it has really big teeth - run like mad!

Paynesgrey:
Never go into the woods without taking someone you can outrun.
