Camping and Woodcraft, Vols. I-II
Macmillan (public-domain scans via Internet Archive)
The classic American woodcraft text: shelter building, axemanship, firecraft, camp cooking, wilderness travel. Adds heritage depth and 'bushcraft' appeal beyond military manuals.
Editor's notes
Bundle only pre-1930 editions — later revised/annotated editions (e.g., 2021 university-press editions) carry new copyrights. Faithful scans of PD works are PD; OCR text quality varies, so plan cleanup if converting to app-native text.
