About Books
Even in the age of computers and e-readers, there’s still something alluring about books. They can be taken anywhere, there's always room in a pack to throw one in, they don’t require any power, and they can be lifesavers when you’re stuck in your tent or under a tarp on stormy days. We’ve carefully selected our book lineup to be instructional, educational, and insightful, and to impart useful information, techniques and concepts to further your appreciation of the outdoors and outdoor skills and knowledge. Books on bushcraft, paddling, canoeing, guidebooks, smithing and field guides are amongst our best loved, and we hope that they will become favourite books of yours as well.
