Horace Kephart's classic has withstood the test of time as the definitive guide to hiking, camping, cabin making, camp cooking, and outdoor survival. Incredibly, it has undergone nearly 70 printings and is one of the best selling books on the out—of—doors ever published. This edition contains special features and many improvements from the previous editions, such as rare photos, an 80—page introduction with a concise biography, and an expanded index.
