Wildwood Wisdom by Ellsworth Jaeger

This historical guide, originally written in 1945, includes information on making fires, canoeing, using axes and knives, and crafting shelters from hand-gathered materials. Readers also learn about clothing, gear, and useful plants. This book also is an account of life in the 1800s, when survival in the wild depended on one's skill and ingenuity.

Ellsworth Jaeger, an expert on Native American lore and camping, was Curator of Education and Hayes Professor of Science at the Buffalo Museum of Science in Buffalo, New York. Wildwood Wisdom was one of his other best-selling works.
