This special edition of 'Camping' was written by Alexandra G. Lockwine, and first published in 1911, making it well over a century old. Although the book is written by a woman, the illustrations feature boys and young men exclusively, but the pastimes and activities, which are mainly sporting pursuits, may interest both boys and girls. The camping information, of course, is useful to all, regardless. The book features sections on Getting Ready, On the Way to Camp, First Day at Camp, Afternoon Sports, Evening Games, Boating, and more. This good, old-fashioned text on camping is a must-read for all those interested in outdoor skills and camping, especially those looking for old-school self-sufficiency information.

Yes, certainly! But it has to be paid for from some of that pocket money. All this and more you tell them, being careful to cross your t's and dot your i's for fear of the 'house's' objections.Father and mother decide to consult together.
