Excerpt from The Boys Outdoor Vacation Book: A Complete Handbook for Every Boy Fond of Life and Recreation in the Open
Every boy longs to make the most of his vacation and to have just as much real fun as he possibly can. Unfortunately many boys find their vacations, either in summer or winter, very dull indeed, merely through a lack of knowledge of what to do and how to do it.
This book has been written with the aim of showing healthy-minded, red-blooded boys just how to enjoy their vacations, the various things they can do and how they can employ their time profitably and pleasurably by making their own camps, traps, boats, weapons, toys and appliances; how they can cure and dress the skins of the animals they kill or trap and how they can lead an enjoyable out-of-doors life, and while enjoying themselves, at the same time acquire a vast deal of practical knowledge.
For the boy who spends his vacation in the country, or near the woods, camps and camping offer great possibilities. Every boy loves to camp, to play Indian or pioneer, to trap and to live as near to Nature as possible.
