Review
Backpacking Made Easy truly lives up to its title. In a concise, simply written text laced with insightful humor, Michael Abel points out the pitfalls to avoid and gives many excellent suggestions for planning where to go, what to take, how to increase endurance on backpacking trips, how to grow in the skills of the outdoorsman, and how to select and wisely use the equipment and food a backpacker needs. Backpacking Made Easy is a complete account of everything about basic backpacking, from avoiding difficulties with bears, mosquitoes and other wilderness dangers, to making a comfortable bed, and fixing the pack for the utmost ease of carrying. Backpacking Made Easy is "must" reading for anyone starting out, and has much to recommend it for even the most experienced backpacker. -- Midwest Book Review
