Shifts and Expedients of Camp Life, Travel, and Exploration e-bog

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Like two voyagers returned from a long cruise in far-off seas, we throw together our joint gleanings in many lands. These do not consist Of jewels, gems, gold, or furs; no piles Of costly merchandise do we lay at the reader's feet as Offerings from distant climes, but Simply the experiences Of two roving Englishmen who have roughed it. By those who have to pass through a campaign, travel wild countries, or explore little known regions, Shifts must be made, and expedients Of many kinds had recourse to, of which the inexperienced in such matters would but little dream.
