Wholesale Shelters, Shacks, and Shanties

Even though D.C. Beard (one of the key founders of the Boy Scouts of America) penned this guide to braving the outdoors more than 100 years ago, the lessons inside still remain invaluable to anyone interested in outdoor survival looking to increase their wilderness know-how. No fancy technology or mechanized equipment is needed to create the various shelter types described inside. There are illustrated, easy-to-follow instructions on how to build everything from a sawed-lumber shanty to a half-cave shelter, bog ken, beaver mat hut, birch bark shack, over-water camp, Navajo hogan, pole house, and much more.  (Medium Discount)
