First published in 1884, Woodcraft and Camping is a classic outdoors manual that has never been out of print. Author George Washington Sears, the Father of American Camping, fills his short book with concise advice on camping, hiking, building a fire, cooking out, shelters, tools and equipment, hunting and fishing, canoeing, and more.
This new digital edition of Woodcraft and Camping includes an image gallery showcasing the early history of camping, with portraits of outdoors pioneers ‘Nessmuck’ (Sears), Thomas Hiram Holding, William Henry Murray (‘Adirondack Murray’) and John MacGregor (‘Rob Roy’).
