Camp Cookery - Outdoor Cooking Secrets From 1910. By Horace
Kephart. Originally published in 1910, this early outdoor cookery
book gives recipes for outdoor delicacies such as Lungwort bread
and dried beans. Written by Horace Kephart a renowned outdoorsman
of his time, this delightful and fully illustrated cookbook
contains, in addition to recipes, a wealth of advice and comments
on camping and life in general. "The knack of camp outfitting
consists in getting the best kit in the least weight and bulk. Wise
campers prefer to go light, doing without most of the appliances of
domestic life. t follows that camp cookery is an art distinct from
the cuisine of kitchens. Originally published in 1910, this is a
comprehensive presentation of all that is needed to set-up a
successful camp kitchen from provisions and utensils, to dressing
and keeping game and fish, building of fires, proper utensils, and
preparation with various recipes." Contents Include Provisions
Utensils Fires Dressing and keeping game and fish Meat Game Fish
and shellfish Cured meats etc eggs Breadstuffs and cereals
Vegetables, soups Beverages and desserts Many of the earliest
books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are
now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Home Farm Books
are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality,
modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

people on a motorcycle? At first, it may seem impossible but it is

your campsite.

information and suggestions you will need to buy the right
clothing, tents, sleeping bags, tools, lights, cookware, and other
camping gear. It describes how to set up comfortable campsites, use

weather, stay warm on cool nights, and prolong the life of your
gear.

expensive motel room. You will enjoy breathing fresh air and
smelling food cooking at the campground. You will enjoy walking on
scenic trails and relaxing at your campsite. In the evening, you
will enjoy sitting by a warm campfire, listening to an owl, and
occasionally hearing a gentle rain falling on your tent.

standard reading for our troops, and unlike some survival manuals,
it is fairly well written and organized.
Forget hurrying. Forget putting your foot down and racing through
sweeping bends. Forget the understeer (whatever that is). Forget
the blur of a life lived too fast. This is a look at taking life
slowly. It's about taking the time to enjoy journeys and places for
their own sake. It's about stopping and putting the kettle on.
Stopping to take a picture. Stopping to enjoy stopping. How are you
going to do it? In a camper van or a motorhome, of course. In this
book we define the best driving routes around France for camper
vans and motorhomes. We show you the coolest places to stay, what
to see, what to do and explain why it's special. We meander around
France on the most breathtaking roads, chugging up mountain passes
and pootling along the coast. We show you stuff that's fun, often
free. We include the best drives for different kinds of drivers;
for walkers, wine-quaffers, climbers and skiers. We include the
steepest, the bendiest, the most picturesque and most interesting.
And you don't even have to own a camper van or motorhome - we'll
tell you the many places you can rent one to take you on the
journey. All of this is interspersed with beautiful photos, handy
maps and quirky travel writing from the king of camper vans and
motorhomes, Martin Dorey. So if all you want to do is flick through
it on a cold day and plan your next outing, you'll be transported
(albeit slowly) to vineyards, beaches, mountains and highways that
make you want to turn the key and go, go, go!
NINE LEVELS, EASY TO EXPERT This book stands apart from other staff
training manuals. While most titles focus on forms and twirling,
The Art and Science of Staff Fighting emphasizes the dynamics of
combat. The author draws on thirty years of martial experience,
presenting the best of both Eastern and Western traditions. Joe
Varady lays out a comprehensive course of study in nine levels,
from beginner to expert. He guides readers through such
fundamentals as stances, striking, blocking, and footwork. In
advanced lessons, readers learn disarming techniques, groundwork,
and facing multiple opponents. But this book is not just for staff
enthusiasts. Even those unfamiliar with martial arts can adapt
these techniques, increasing their skill and confidence in
defending themselves. "Our environment is usually full of
improvised weapons," Varady writes. "Staff fighting techniques can
be effectively applied in a self-defense situation using a walking
stick, coatrack, curtain rod, floor lamp, hockey stick, fallen tree
branch, broom, mop, shovel, or rake." Equipped with this knowledge,
readers will begin to realize that, in one way or another, they are
nearly always armed and capable of defending themselves. This book
features: Nine levels of instruction, progressing from easy to
expert Over 600 photos with motion arrows A "nondenominational"
approach to staff, utilizing the best of Eastern and Western arts A
comprehensive, methodical approach to building staff skills If you
are already a student of the staff, these lessons will not conflict
with your katas or current style. Instead, they will augment your
techniques, broadening your options. Whether you are an experienced
staff fighter or a layman seeking practical techniques for
self-defense, The Art and Science of Staff Fighting will help you
develop the skills you need.
