What Customers Say About Wildwood Wisdom:

My Senior year of high school,(some thirty years ago) my school librarian stopped me while checking out this book. She smiled with a twinkle in her eye, and handed me my very own copy that she ordered for me. She said that she had noticed that my name had been the only name this book had been loaned to in four years. Every two weeks I had checked it in in the morning, then checked it out over my lunch hour. I still use it constantly.Well, I'm ordering one for each of my Grand kids. I just wish they offered this in hardcover today.
This book is crammed full of good survival and outdoor information. Its also full of awesome drawings. This is one of my favorite outdoor books and has been for many years, i find myself coming back to it again and again. Buy it, you wont regret it.
A great book with much of interest to anyone interested in outdoor skills and woodsman ship in an age that has mostly vanished. The illustrations are great and some are humorous as well.
I first read this book in my High School Library in 1955.The best outdoor survival book ever.Buy it at least a month before you go camping.Must read for campers.
All outdoorsmen should own a copy of this book. Highly entertaining and a wealth of knowledge.
