Indexed and with a four-page catalogue of books about Scouting and Boys Stories Review by GoodReads: "WOODCRAFT - there is no subject more fascinating, The better you understand it, the more you rejoice in being alive, the more you long to go on living, and the more you desire to know of life. And though you may know only a little of woodcraft, yet that little will add such a sweetness and interest to life that you will never be dull or without something to think about, provided the open sky is above your head and the wind blows, the the sun shines, or the rain beats on your face. All good Scouts must be trained in woodcraft, and by woodcraft all their best qualities Even a little knowledge of woodcraft will help you far in life - to find your way through unknown country to steer a true course with or without aid from compass, sun, moon, or stars to pick up and follow a trail to read messages of good news or bad in the movements of birds or animals to solve mysteries and read riddles by clues of bent grasses or stray feathers to foretell weather by the look of the clouds and the feel of the Winds and to find water and food."
