To build a fire, feel heat, smell smoke, hear snaps and groans,
watch flames dance, and gaze into glowing coals is the ultimate
outdoor comfort. A campfire gives warmth, sheds light, dries Trade
Trade Clothes, calms fears, and draws a day in the outdoors to a
pleasant close. In addition to the comforts of a campfire, a life
may often hang in the balance. When a campfire becomes a matter of
life or death, there is no room for error. The Complete Book of
Fire: Building Campfires for Cooking, Warmth, Light, and Survival
provides the knowledge and fosters the confidence to successfully
stay alive.
