wilderness survival equipment

Is it possible for me to move into the wilderness and live off the land without getting arrested for trespassi?
If I was to sell everything I own and just buy supplies for the winter and survival equipment. Is it legal?
Legal, yes. But much harder than you would imagine. My wife and I used to do 1-2 week trips all year round where we lived off just what we had. It is much harder than it seems when you are reading the Tom Brown books. Spend 3 days in a hut with the rain pouring down and out of dry wood and your clothes are damp and you have no fire and it is 45 degrees... do that as an experiment and the whole idea of being Grizzly Adams loses its appeal quite fast. There are people doing it. But it isn't practical unless you are going to try to at least put up some kind of substantial shelter. A tent ain't going to do it. I do know an old fella that lives down by the beach in NC and he has been there many years. He has a hut of sorts and seems to do okay most of the year.

Maxpedition Kodiak, E2E Basic EDC - Wilderness Survival
What are some good Wilderness Survival books/schools?
By wilderness survival I mean learning how to LIVE in the wilderness, I don't mean just surviving until I'm rescued.
I've been wanting to learn wilderness survival for a long time, but I can't seem to find any books that will really help me learn this.
I've looked at a couple of schools, like Tom Brown Jr's Tracking School, but they are very expensive and they don't teach that much information for the prices I'd have to pay for one class.
I really want to learn how to live in the wild with absolutely no modern equipment besides maybe a knife. This includes thing like making fire, fishing, hunting, finding edible plants, finding water. It doesn't even have to be a school where I learn it, as long as I learn it.
Thanks Chris, I definitely agree with you. Books are kind of my last resort though. I've looked on craigslist for people in my area who want to learn this kind of stuff, but I haven't found anyone. This hobbie/lifestyle really uncommon in my area I guess
PRACTICE...try reading the books for a foundation and try the stuff out in a controlled environment until you're comfortable. Keep dropping the non-essentials until you reach the level you're looking for. If you can find a mentor, great, but it's such a commodity these days that few give away their knowledge free of charge. NOTHING WILL REPLACE ACTUAL TIME IN THE FIELD!! I wish you the best of luck and, yeah, Tom Brown is a great resource. His attitude towards this subject is admirable.
