I found this book very interesting. It covers from fly traps to bear trapping plus all kinds of info on camping and shelters.

The first printing of this book was in1881. The laws on trapping were sure different then. It shows The use of a set bow, it's like a set gun but with a bow and arrow. A release is made so that when an animal takes a bait off a stick it fires. Not something I think we need to be using today but interesting.

it might be helpful in a survival situation, but not much else.
