Camping's Forgotten Skills: Backwood Tips from a Boundary Waters Guide

Rating:
Summary: Excellent review of basic skills!
Review: Having been involved in Scouting and camping since 1965 I found this book to be a great review of the basic skills I was taught as a youth. In todays world of high tech camping gadgets this book brings you back to "bucket stoves". While I realy enjoyed this book I found it to be too heavey into outdoor baking and lacking in certain areas such as outdoor sanition and how to set up a tarp without it blowing down. But I guess everything can't be covered in one book. I felt this book was well worth reading for everyone who ventures farther than their backyard on a camping trip.
