About the work
The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:
LibriVox recording of How to Camp Out by John Mead Gould. Read in English by Sarah Jennings. Advice on camp gear, clothing, cooking, hiking, and other topics. Much of the book remains good and sensible advice today, but modern readers may be amused by Maj. Gould's few remarks on ladies, who "must be cared for more tenderly than men." - Summary by Sarah Jennings
