In this volume famous naturalist, author, and artist Ernest Thompson Seton presents the definitive guide to the Great Outdoors. Within it, you will find information, instructions, and anecdotes relating to every aspect of woodcraft, from making fires and identifying plants to hunting, tying knots, and much more. Profusely illustrated with the authors own drawings, this timeless volume is highly recommended for those with an interest in woodcraft and collectors of related literature. Ernest Thompson Seton (1860 - 1946) was an English author and wildlife artist who founded the Woodcraft Indians in 1902. He was also among the founding members of the Boy Scouts of America, established in 1910. He wrote profusely on this subject, the most notable of his scouting literature including 'The Birch Bark Roll' and the 'Boy Scout Handbook'. Seton was also an early pioneer of animal fiction writing, and he is fondly remembered for his charming book 'Wild Animals I Have Known' (1898). Other notable works by this author include: 'Lobo, Rag and Vixen' (1899), 'Two Little Savages' (1903), and 'Animal Heroes' (1911). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
