Book Overview

As with many popular subjects, new books are constantly being written on camping or (under the new term) survival. Horace Kephart's "The Book of Camping & Woodcraft" is THE classic upon which other survival/camping books rewrite. The information Kephart provides is proven and timeless. Sure, you won't learn the best way to operate your GPS or cell phone, but you do learn the best tools and items for your kit, camp fires, cooking outdoors, marksmanship, trapping, skinning, plants, first aid and literally everything necessary to keep you alive outdoors. This is a photographic reproduction of the classic 1906 edition.

About Horace Kephart

Before coming the mountains, Horace Kephart (1862-1931) served as librarian of the prestigious Mercantile Library in St. Louis. His significant work, however, was done after he came to live in the Southern Appalachians in 1904. He played important roles in the establishment of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and the Appalachian Trail. Jim Casada, who has provided an informative introduction to this edition, was professor of history at Winthrop College. He is the author of Smoky Mountain Boyhood, editor-at-large for Sporting Classics and contributing editor for Fly Fishing Heritage.
