How to Camp Out

by John Mead GOULD (1839 - 1930)

Tents, Tent Poles and Pins

Advice on camp gear, clothing, cooking, hiking, and other topics. Much of the book remains good and sensible advice today, but modern readers may be amused by Maj. Gould's few remarks on ladies, who "must be cared for more tenderly than men." - Summary by Sarah Jennings
