The chapter on cleaning fish was written specially for this volume by Mr. Leslie F. Bosworth. It needs no eulogy.
To my Friend FRANK W. BRETT, M.D.,
THE COMPANION OF MANY CAMPS, AND THE FRIEND OF MANY DAYS, THIS LITTLE BOOK IS AFFECTIONATELY DEDICATED BY THE AUTHOR
In laying this new edition of “Camping and Camp-Cooking” before the reading public, it becomes my duty—the most pleasant that falls to the lot of a writer—to express my thanks for the kind reception of the little book. That it has been a success is proven by the kind words of practical people. Hence, but little change has been made in the body of the book; but an appendix has been added on the care of the health, the reason for which will be found therein expressed.
