I think Tom Brown is doing worthwhile stuff and has an important role to play with what he's doing. I guess I don't see how my not referencing one of his books is supposed to be a slam or a sign of animosity however.
Interesting to note how politically minded people tend to be with this stuff though…right off the bat another fellow took issue the fact that I listed books on Ninjitsu by Hatsumi and not from one of his rival schools.
You probably have got me somewhat on this - I wouldn’t describe myself as ‘political’ so much as oversensitive. 
I’ve run into enough anti-TBjr-ism that perhaps I’ve started to project it on others a bit.
Having said that, Tom Brown’s core teachings revolve around the skills of the “scout”, which from your descriptions also seem to match the skills of the Guardian Warrior. His book “Way of the Scout” has loads of stories about exactly the kind of activity that Tamarack Song describes his Guardian Warrior apprentices as engaging in.
So I highly recommend you read the book and see if it belongs on your resources list.
I like Tom Brown’s stuff too because he stresses the importance of (and provides specific instruction in) movement skills, such as fox walking, stalking, etc., something I see as severely lacking in the primitive skills world. Check out his field guide to Nature Observation for lots of good stuff that I’ve never seen written down anywhere else (along with stuff that I have seen other places, of course).
In any case, I feel relieved (though a bit surprised too) to know that you sincerely did not know of information Tom Brown might have that people would otherwise miss.
Thanks for your work on the guardianwarrior webpage! I do appreciate it a lot.
): i didn’t mean ‘urban scout’ by my references to ‘scout skills’, but rather the other gentleman who talk a lot about ‘the way of the scout’.
