The Book of Camping & Woodcraft: A Guidebook For Those Who Travel In The Wilderness [Kephart, Horace] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. The Book of Camping & Woodcraft: A Guidebook For Those Who Travel In The Wilderness

Review: One of the best antiquated texts on outdoor living. - This is by far one of my favorite reads from the turn of the century. I loan it out or buy new copies to give away all the time. It's a philosophical and practical guide to simple outdoor trips for beginners and those looking for information on the simple principles camping. The book is antiquated and the has references that aren't deemed appropriate to the times for certain ethnic peoples, but not at all condescending. Every facet of camping during the beginning of the 20th century is included. Some of the practices have been discontinued for preservation's sake, but it's a very good guide for teaching the principles of both overnight and expedition camping. Kephart's writing style and vocabulary are excellent and he has a few other, more interesting books on his travels. The best part of the book is his expedition across Michigan with nothing more than a knapsack and a black powder rifle. This book is a great way to get children and young adults interested in the mystic arts of the outdoorsman.
Review: Oldie but goodie - Great read but a little dated but to be expected. Great information and information that you could use even today. Classic.

Great read but a little dated but to be expected. Great information and information that you could use even today. Classic.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Buy the paperback only, The perfect outdoorsman guide book
*by W***N on March 18, 2017*

This is in my humble opinion the greatest outdoors book you can buy. This man truly captures what being outdoors is all about. Some of the techniques and gear he speaks of may be outdated but you will find most of this book still applies today and there is nothing wrong with doing it the old way sometimes. If you are looking for an all rounder outdoors bushcrafter book then this is the book for you. It is also enjoyable reading this and seeing how they spoke back in those days. Simpler times for sure but even today we can enjoy the same things he enjoyed out in the bush. Buy this as a gift for an outdoorsman in your life and he will thank you.
