Whether travelling by bike, canoe, on foot or by car, camping offers flexibility, freedom and fun. This book explores the many varieties of lightweight tent life and travel including all the skills required and the essential equipment.

In this unique book author John Traynor has distilled a lifetime of camping, from surviving childhood camping trips in the valleys of South Wales to international expeditions.
