Have you ever wanted to make a pair of Indian mocassins, cook in a dutch oven or make a pair of snowshoes -- by hand, the old fashioned way?

About the Author
Bill Cunningham is uniquely qualified to write about old-time skills. He grew up in a remote part of Maine and later became an authority on mountain man skills and clothing. He has written three adventure novels (Rocky Mountain Tough, Rocky Mountain Brave and Rocky Mountain Proud) and has also written a coffee table book about fur trade reenactment - Rendevouz: Back to a Simpler Time.
Review
"An essential compendium of core mountain man skills...clearly written, powerfully presented. It plumb shines." -- John Legg, author of Shinin' Trails, A Possibles Bag of Fur Trade Trivia
"Crisp, easy-to-understand writing and clear step-by-step illustrations and patterns make this a must-have book for anyone interested in historical lifestyles and outdoor skills." -- Peter Semelka, Emmy Winner and International Film Award recipient
"It is long past time that a writer of Mr. Cunningham's stature and expertise has taken the time to assemble a manual of basic 'how-to' skills for the enthusiast, both the novice and the gray beard. An essential addition to every mountain man's library." -- George Thompson, Capitaine, The American Mountain Man
