    Synopsis
    Back before the days of trailers, Coleman stoves, RVs, nylon sleeping bags, and all the other modern camping conveniences, people still went camping. Camping in the Old Style explores the methods used by campers prior to the advent of modern technology. Everything from laying and setting a campfire to creating and pitching a tent, telling camp lore, canoeing, horseback camping, jack-knife cooking, woodcrafting, using an ax and saw, choosing and preparing camp food, setting up camp kitchens, and more is included., Back before the days of trailors, coleman stoves, RV's nylon sleeping bags, and all the other modern camping conveniences, people still went camping.

Miller's Camping Out, James Austin Wilder's Jack-Knife Cookery, and Ernest Thompson Seton's The Birch Bark Roll of Woodcraft. T othese camping classics he adds his own methods.

      Shipping took a little longer than it initially said but the book still arrived just as described in fantastic condition. I wasn't a huge fan of the packaging though, as it was just wrapped in a simple thin plastic sleeve with zero cushion or padding and I've had books completely destroyed because there was nothing to protect them so if possible I'd like to see the seller provide a safer package when shipping books. But thankfully mine wasn't damaged in transit!

    • Waste of money!

      The book is just a cut and paste of other authors material. This author does credit the other authors but why waste the money purchasing this book when you can have the originals. I would not waste my time and money on this book!
