Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nature and Woodcraft On the Eagles being frequently robbed of their young in Greenup, they removed to the opposite side of the crag. At this place they built for two years, but left it for Raven Crag, within the Coom, where, after staying a year only, they returned to their ancient seat in Eagle Crag. Here they bred annually during their stay in Borrowdale. On the loss of its mate, the other eagle left the district, but returned in the following spring with a fresh one. This pair built during fourteen years, but finally abandoned Borrowdale for Eskdale. Here again they were disturbed, and the female being afterwards shot, the male flew off and returned no more.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Woodcraft Right here a question pops up before us. We are going on this trip far back into the virgin forest, and the trail is long and rough; how then can we transport an unwieldy crosscut saw and such fragile stuff as glass? We will remove the handles from the saw and bind over the tooth edge a grooved strip of wood. This makes it safe to carry, and while still somewhat unhandy it is the best we can do, for we cannot shorten its length. For the window, we will take only the glass - six sheets of eight. By ten or ten by fourteen size. Between each sheet we place a piece of corrugated packing board, and the whole is packed in a case.

Book Synopsis Woodcraft (Legacy Edition) by : Nessmuk (George W. Sears)
Download or read book Woodcraft (Legacy Edition) written by Nessmuk (George W. Sears) and published by . This book was released on 2019-09-27 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nessmuk - The Dean of the Outdoors Pick up your premium reprint Legacy Edition of Nessmuk's Woodcraft! In perhaps the best-known and best-selling book on camping of all-time, Nessmuk (George W. Sears) shares his vast knowledge of the wild ways and life outdoors. Finding solace in the woods from ill health in the city, Nessmuk found himself a solo canoe and traveled the American Adirondacks. Inspired by the natural beauty and the ability of nature to restore vitality, Nessmuk penned this oft-cited classic volume on camping, wilderness, and woodcraft skills. After collecting stories, tips, tidbits, and tricks of the outdoors, Nessmuk's first version of Woodcraft was published in 1884, representing the first well-known how-to manual for the outdoors. Perhaps Nessmuk's most famous line in this book inspires folks to get outside and enjoy nature's way of recharging our batteries: "We do not go out to the woods to rough it; we go to smooth it - we get it rough enough in town. But let us live the simple, natural life in the woods, and leave all frills behind." This Legacy Edition of Woodcraft is a facsimile reprint of the twelfth printing (1900). Its many printings have been consistently published throughout the 19th, 20th, and 21st Centuries. Enjoy this handbook by the Dean of the Outdoors - there's a ton of tricks and tips to glean from its pages!

Book Synopsis The Book of Camping and Woodcraft by : Horace Kephart
Download or read book The Book of Camping and Woodcraft written by Horace Kephart and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of Camping and Woodcraft: A Guidebook for Those Who Travel, in the Wilderness My one aim in writing this little book is to make it of practical service to those who seek rest or sport in the wilderness, or whose business calls them thither. I have treated the matter of outfitting in some detail, not because elaborate outfits are usually desirable, for they are not, but because in town there is so much to pick and choose from. Thereafter, the body of the book is mainly given up to such shifts and expedients as are learned in the wilderness itself, where we have nothing to choose from but the raw materials that lie around us. As for camps situated within easy reach of towns or supply-posts, every one, I suppose, known best how to gratify his own tastes in fitting them up, and prefers to use his own ingenuity rather than copy after others. Real woodcraft consists rather in knowing how to get along without the appliances of civilization than in adapting them to wildwood life. Such an art comes in play when we travel "light," and especially in emergencies, when the equipment, or essential parts of it, have been destroyed. I am not advising anybody to travel with nothing but a gun and ammunition, a blanket, a frying-pan, and a tin cup; but it has been part of my object to show how the thing can be done, if necessary, without serious hardship. Woodcraft may be defined as the art of getting along well in the wilderness by utilizing nature's storehouse.

It is sufficient here to realize its existence and the fact that it makes more difficult adaptation to the woods for woman. It does explain, how ever, the large number of women who go on outings as passive observers rather than as active participants.

Book excerpt: This book was originally published in 1911 and is being reprinted here in its entirety by Sportsman's Vintage Press.From the Preface:Even a little knowledge of woodcraft will help you far in life--to find your way through unknown country; to steer a true course with or without aid from compass, sun, moon, or stars; to pick up and follow a trail; to read messages of good news or bad in the movements of birds or animals; to solve mysteries and read riddles by clues of bent grasses or stray feathers; to foretell weather by the look of the clouds and the feel of the winds; and to find water and food. And then, apart from all this, from all the knowledge woodcraft gives you of birds, beasts, reptiles, or insects--of sun, moon and stars--or winds, rains, and frosts--apart from wild nature, woodcraft teaches you about human nature, how to judge actions from causes, and from actions to judge effects. For the student of woodcraft, however humble, brings to bear on human nature a mind trained to precise observation and shrewd reasoning. And it may be that he will learn what we have learnt who were born to woodcraft; to find his greatest contentment and truest happiness in the woods and fields, by the hedgerows, the quiet streams, and on the rolling downs; to know there is no music like the songs of birds, and no such thing of beauty as a wild rose of the wayside.While we have written this book, in the first place, for the boy scouts--hoping they will enjoy it, and perhaps profit by it--it is written for everybody who would like to learn a little about woodcraft and its meaning.

This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Birch-Bark Roll of the Woodcraft Indians Containing Their Constitution, Laws, Games, and Deeds This is a time when the whole nation is turning toward the outdoor life, seeking in it the physical regeneration so needful for continued national existence - is waking to the fact long known to thoughtful men, that those live longest who live nearest to the ground, that is, who live the simple life of primitive times, divested, however, of the evils that ignorance in those times begot. Half our diseases are in our minds and half in our houses. We can safely leave the rest to the physicians for treatment. Sport is the great incentive to outdoor life; nature study is the intellectual side of sport. Camping is the simple life reduced to actual practice, as well as the culmination of the outdoor life. Camping has no great popularity to-day, because men have the idea that it is possible only after an expensive journey to the wilderness, and women that it is inconvenient, dirty, and dangerous. These are errors. They have arisen because camping as an art is not understood. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Boy Scouts of Woodcraft Camp In this and succeeding volumes, The Boy Scouts on Swift River, The Boy Scouts on Lost Trail, The Boy Scouts in a Trapper's Camp, I have sought to portray the life of such a school camp under Boy Scout rules. The Boy Scouts of Woodcraft Camp has been written with a twofold purpose: To stimulate on the part of every one of my boy readers a desire to master for himself the mysteries of nature's great out-of-doors, the secrets of field and wood and stream, and to show by example what the Boy Scout's oath means in the development of character. Many of the incidents in the succeeding pages are drawn from my own experiences. And if, because of reading this story, one more boy is led to the Shrine of the Hemlock, there to ih hale the pungent incense from a camp-fire and to master the art of tossing a flapjack, I shall feel that I have not written in vain.

Frederick Collins; permission of Raymond Ditmars to use material from which the article and drawing of Snakes, Good and Bad were made; and the games suggested by a number of friends. The Committee has attempted to have the Manual contain information on most of the subjects which would come up in group work. Where a subject has not been carefully covered, reference books have been given. While Woodcraft as founded by Mr. Seton has been carried on for fourteen years, the Woodcraft League in its present form is but a few months old. Owing to the necessity for a Boys' Manual the present Birch Bark Roll has been produced under pressure and does not include all the material originally planned. But it is given to the public with the thought as expressed in the Preface to Two Little Savages. Because I have known the torments of thirst, I would dig a well where others may drink.
