Of all the various subjects in the catalogue of sports and pastimes, there is none more sure of arousing the enthusiasm of our American boys generally, than that which forms the title of this book. Traps and Trapping, together with its kindred branches, always have been and always will be subjects of great interest among boys, and particularly so to those who live in the country. It is a fact to be regretted that we have so few examples of "Boys' Books" published in this country. There are a few English works of this character, that are very excellent as far as they go, but are nevertheless incomplete and unsatisfactory to the wants of American boys, dwelling largely on sports which are essentially English, and merely touching upon or utterly excluding other topics which are of the utmost interest to boys of this country. In no one of these books, so far as the author of the present volume knows, is the subject of Traps considered to any fair extent, and those examples which are given, represent only the most common and universal varieties already known to the general public.

This special re-print edition of H. Hamilton Gibson's "Camp Life In The Woods: And The Tricks of Trapping and Trap Making" is a treasury on the art of hunting and trapping. Written in 1881, this historical masterpiece on the subject of trapping and fur preparation, has not been available to the public for over a century.

Traps, Household Traps, Steel Traps and the Art of Trapping, Life in the Wilderness, The Trapper's Miscellany and more.
