NY: Alfred A. Knopf, 1971. Book. Illus. by Franks, Vanna. Very Good +. Cloth. 12th Printing.. 353 pp. Book is very clean, tight, and only slight wear. DJ has chips and wrinkles. No markings in text. Sierra Club calls this "probably the definitive work on camping and hiking." Written in a first-person, highly anecdotal style that draws the reader in and makes him browse the extra mile. Hiking metaphorically described as moving a house over distance. With details about "the bedroom, the kitchen, the bathroom," etc. Fletcher explains the pros and cons of his various recommendationss, helping the reader make intelligent choices about risks of being unprepared versus excessive cargo. Quite a bit of detail about nutrition and food supplies. Index plus appendices, including a list of backpacking supply houses. Size: 8vo --8.5 In.
