Description

The Frontiersman's Pocket-Book by Roger Pocock is a rare and valuable guide to living and working in the wilderness. First published in 1909, this manual was created by the Countess Mountbatten's Own Legion of Frontiersmen as their training and survival guide. This facsimile edition features original documents, photographs, and maps from the University of Alberta's Bruce Peel Special Collections Library's Sir Samuel Steele Collection, including papers from Roger Pocock himself. A useful resource for those interested in bushcraft or guerrilla warfare, The Frontiersman's Pocket-Book remains a valuable historical document. Hardcover, 506 pages.
