Be at home in nature, all through the year, with the old-timey, folksy wisdom in this classic camping companion.

First published in 1920, and never out-of-print, Daniel C. Beard's The Book of Camp-Lore & Woodcraft is a guide from yesteryear for enjoying the great outdoors as its guest.

Through the pages of this book, the author, a pioneer of the scouting movement, takes kids on a camping trip and instructs them in the art of building a fireplace and lighting a fire, designing a campsite, pitching a tent, cooking flapjacks, packing a trail horse, handling an axe, and much more.

Daniel Carter Beard was an expert outdoorsman and founder of the scouting movement in America. His goal was to help kids to enjoy the out-of-doors as much as he did. In his books, filled with time-tested tips and knowledgable advice, Beard helped preserve invaluable folkways that instill self-reliance and a deeper appreciation of nature--all while having a world of fun. This is truly a book for all ages--including adults.

About the Author
Beard, Daniel Carter: -

Daniel Carter Beard was a pioneer of the scouting movement in America and his great passion was making boys and girls feel at home in nature, to allow them to experience its wonders while fostering their sense of self-sufficiency and independence. Among his books are The American Boy's Handy Book (1882), The Field and Forest Handy Book (1906), and The Book of Camp-Lore & Woodcraft (1920). His two sisters, Lina and Adelia Beard, were also active in scouting (as well as the women's rights movement) and helped create the Campfire Girls. The two wrote The American Girl's Handy Book (1893).
