Hiking

Hiking is about the pleasures of the journey, experiencing nature with minimal clutter. Published in 1927 by D. Francis Morgan, the manual covers countless fundamentals: fire building, tracking, compass reading, tents, meals and washing-up. Many descriptions are accompanied by wonderful vintage illustrations. Written for beginners as well as "the old hand," Hiking is for those who wish to reclaim some of the romance of the trip as experienced by naturalists before the explosion of outdoor consumerism
