Excerpt from Woodcraft for Women A discussion of the causes of this inertia would lead us far afield in the history of woman.

It does explain, how ever, the large number of women who go on outings as passive observers rather than as active participants.

Book Description
Excerpt from Woodcraft Right here a question pops up before us. We are going on this trip far back into the virgin forest, and the trail is long and rough; how then can we transport an unwieldy crosscut saw and such fragile stuff as glass? We will remove the handles from the saw and bind over the tooth edge a grooved strip of wood. This makes it safe to carry, and while still somewhat unhandy it is the best we can do, for we cannot shorten its length. For the window, we will take only the glass - six sheets of eight. By ten or ten by fourteen size. Between each sheet we place a piece of corrugated packing board, and the whole is packed in a case.

Book Description
Excerpt from Nature and Woodcraft On the Eagles being frequently robbed of their young in Greenup, they removed to the opposite side of the crag. At this place they built for two years, but left it for Raven Crag, within the Coom, where, after staying a year only, they returned to their ancient seat in Eagle Crag. Here they bred annually during their stay in Borrowdale. On the loss of its mate, the other eagle left the district, but returned in the following spring with a fresh one. This pair built during fourteen years, but finally abandoned Borrowdale for Eskdale. Here again they were disturbed, and the female being afterwards shot, the male flew off and returned no more.

The Book of Woodcraft and Indian Lore (Classic Reprint)

ISBN: 9780266620358
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 592
Book Description
Excerpt from The Book of Woodcraft and Indian Lore For over twenty-five years I have been giving the talks and demonstrations that are gathered together in this book. Many Of them have appeared in magazines or in the birch-bark Roll that has come out annually for ten years. But this is the first time in which a comprehensive collection has been made Of the activities, customs, laws, and amusements that have been developed in my camps. Some of the related subjects I have treated at too great length for enclosure in one book. Of this class are the Life Histories Of Northern Animals, Animal Stories, Sign Language and Forestry, which appear as separate works. All are merely parts of a scheme that I have always considered my life work, namely, the development or revival of Woodcraft as a school for Manhood. By Woodcraft I mean outdoor life in its broadest sense and the plan has ever been with me since boyhood. Woodcraft is the first of all the sciences. It was Woodcraft that made man out Of brutish material, and Woodcraft in its highest form may save him from decay. As the model for outdoor life in this country I took the Indian, and have thus been obliged to defend him against the calumnies Of those who coveted his possessions. In giving these few historical extracts to show the Indian character, it must be remembered that I could give hundreds, and that prae tically all the travelers who saw with their own eyes are of one mind in the matter. Commissioner Robert G. Valentine, of the Indian Bureau, the first Indian Commissioner we have ever had who knew and sympathized with the Indians, writes after reading my manu script.
