Add to basketItem description from seller
Originally published in Switzerland. Shows how to orient yourself both with compass and without, using the sun, the stars and moon, and how to calculate distances, read maps and plan your own routes. This little book has illustrated green boards and b&w illustrations throughout. Handy pocket size, thin volume packed full of details about the subject. Boards have a bit of edge, shelf and corner wear and the name Alex is written in red on the ffep, but pages are excellent, uncreased and unmarked. Great little book. None of my books are ex-lib., remainders or bce unless specified.

Store description
I have an eclectic mix of vintage and antique children's books, as well as a good mx of general fiction and non-fiction covering many tastes from humour to thriller. I also have a growing collection of vintage paperbacks and will soon be adding to my inventory. I am crazy about vintage kid's books with their bright, cheerful covers and classic illustrations and stories. I love to match a book with a customer and am extra happy when the customer is happy.
