i would also suggest y'all learn how to buy "old books"
one of my greatest joys is trying to find good clean copies of original old books. internet, yo? but it goes beyond that.
if you buy this knife, it's practically *required* you hit the Smokey Mountain Park Museum to buy an official reproduction of the Kephart book.
though if you are cool, you find a way to buy one of the original printings from back in the day.
if you score a first printing, we have to talk
Is Tomars the only dealer taking preorders?
I will keep on the look out Dubz.I definitely need to purchase a copy of Camping and Woodcraft.
Thanks man. I have the pdf of the 1906 version, but would rather read it from an actual book, especially at the cabin.I will keep on the look out Dubz.
I have a nice 1928 edition and I love it. I agree I like the feel of a real book.Thanks man. I have the pdf of the 1906 version, but would rather read it from an actual book, especially at the cabin.
Internet-yo.
Etsy has a couple old ones - like 1908 and 1924. If you are made of money.
There's a 1988 edition out there at a fair price.
"Photographic reproduction" of 1906 edition seems to be a thing. Several sources.
Undecided which way to go.
The above link is sold out.
I googled the book and Abe’s was the cheapest I found.
