Title: Life of an 1880s Conservationist and Wilderness Traveler
Review: The author was 40 years older than Horace Kephart who wrote a more extensive book with a similar title. Both men wrote for Field and Stream, both were conservationists, both were instrumental in having major wilderness parks established. Sears wrote under the pen name of Nessmuk and it is to his mentor, Nessmuk, that Kephart dedicates his book. Sear's wilderness was the Adirondacks and he set off in light-weight canoes he had made to his specifications. A great read whose philosophy of wilderness and camping will never be out of date.
