WALKING tours are popularly supposed to be feasible chiefly for those to whom this method of travel is incidental to their occupation-timber cruisers, landlookers, prospectors, game wardens and trappers of the North-men who daily match themselves against the forces of Nature. To the average city man rarely does it occur that by substituting walking, our most natural means of locomotion-even if carried no farther than the daily to and from business trip-for the rapid transportation perfected in our modern industrial life he can attain better business efficiency and an increased physical and mental well being.

Excerpt from Afoot and Awheel in Europe The good-byes had been said, the quartette hastened to their staterooms, made themselves busy arranging their tokens of love and friendship that loving friends had sent to the ship with their good-byes, so as not to see the fading forms of the loved ones left behind, and the good ship left her moorings and made her way out to sea. The days passed as most days do on shipboard, watching the changing lights and shadows that played over the deep blue sea, noting the peaceful rise and fall of the horizon, veritably being rocked in the cradle of the deep. Between the sunlight, shadows, and sea there came a restfulness of the spirit that followed us through our seven months' travels in Europe, and also on our home ward course, until our hearts leaped for joy when our eyes fell upon Old Glory in New York Harbor.

A visual exploration and history of one of America's favorite pastimes. Car camping, hike-in tent camping, bivouacking, mountaineering, RV camping, glamping, back yard camping . . . whatever your style, outdoor adventure awaits! For camping enthusiasts, this fascinating (and packable) volume holds a comprehensive look at the origins of the practice and the ways that bring all these enthusiasts together. From the early days of recreational camping in the late nineteenth century through the multitude of modern camping options available today, Making Camp explores the history and evolution of the popular activity through the lens of its most important and familiar components: the campsite, the campfire, the picnic table, the map, the tent, the sleeping bag, as well as the oft invisible systems for delivering water and managing trash. Find out how early nineteenth century German peasants fashioned rudimentary sleeping bags by burrowing into bags full of leaves for the night. Look back over several millennia to learn about the progression of tents from animal skins, goat's hair, and heavy canvas to featherweight nylon. Learn about the ways in which the skills to build and maintain a campfire have been displaced by the portable gas stove. Pinpoint the details of the essential campground map and its unique place in the camping imagination. Each chapter includes a broad range of visuals to help illustrate the rich history of camping and our collective devotion to it, including drawings, patents, diagrams, sketches, paintings, advertisements, and historical photographs. A must-have for avid campers, nature lovers, and all who seek to connect with the universe by sleeping under the stars.
