Camp and Trail Stewart Edward White 9781116316278 Books Reviews
Excellent!
Not bad at all I guess very simple I suppose could be not as easy to read in that style of writing if your not used to that sort of grammar
ok
Good book with useful knowledge and it was available at no cost. It would be just plain dumb to neglect to accumulate the knowledge in the free books available from . Good reference and resource material.
I grew up in the Rocky Mountains of the Northwest. While my peers wanted to 'go cruising' or sneak cigarettes and experiment with alcohol and loud music, I always had the wanderlust desire to see what was on the other side of 'the mountain' or lake, or... So I started reading about the American pioneers and mountain men, American Indians...then about Eskimos and Pacific Islanders...and got into fishing, hunting, backpacking, horse packing, and camping out. I discovered that reading about how someone else had already figured out how to do something saved me a lot of effort (or cuts, burns, bruises...) in accomplishing what I was trying to do roughing it "out". This book is a,good read along those lines.
It was a thin paperback ( knew it would be soft cover) however suspect it is very abridged . I had older original hardback edition in my home growing up . I seem to recall many more pages , and drawings ( this had little or none) . You might want to let customers know if it is abridged.
For a free book on the the value is astronomical.
The people saying this book is dated are right, you're not going to be wearing moccasins. Waterproof boots are less of a gimmick with the advent of goretex In fact the outdoors-man has an astounding number of gear options since the author's lifetime 1873-1946. This book isn't going to tell you what kind of treaking poles you should use, or the technological wonder that is a spandex polyester blend long underwear. Its also not going to tell you how to build a campfire or tie a knot, or a number of other things that a man was just expected to know in the early 1900's.
What you are going to get by reading this book is how the author approached his gear philosophically and practically. You'll learn what he used and more importantly why he used it... you'll also understand how his gear and approach changed after more hours outdoors then most modern folks will ever see. I think by reading this book you'll understand how the author would choose his gear in modern times. You'll come to understand that the needs of a human being haven't changed that much, nor has the debate on how to fulfill them.
What I found most valuable an easy to follow method on deciding what is necessary and what is unnecessary gear. How to avoid dangers of being over-encumbered, while still avoiding the dangers of being under equipped is the key to enjoying the outdoors. It was also refreshing to see that gear selection was situation dependent (some modern folks seem to be stuck on having a one size fits all solution to their outdoors kit)
