In this deluxe Legacy Edition reprint of the first version of Kephart's masterwork (in its final fifth edition printing), learn all of the essential, but often forgotten skills of classic camping and outdoors travel, including camping, camp cookery, clothing, hiking and wayfinding, outdoors gear and outfits, beating bugs and the elements, handling emergency situations, woods tools and axemanship, catching your dinner by hunting and fishing, and tanning skins and pelts.This first version of this book (in its final fifth edition, printed 1912) is the shorter, more concise publication compared to Kephart's later expansion of this work, called Camping and Woodcraft from 1916-1917 (over 800 pages total sold as two volumes). Note: This printing is of the fifth edition of the first version (1912), not the first edition (1906). It has been expanded by the author from the previous four editions.About the Doublebit Press Library of American Outdoors ClassicsWith technology playing a major role in everyday life, sometimes we need to take a step back in time to find those basic building blocks used for gaining mastery – the things that we have luckily not completely lost and has been recorded in books over the last two centuries.
