Canoe and Gamp Ctoolsery . 
Bv "SENECA." 
A practical cook book for canoeists, Corinthian sailors and outers. Practical because 
the author gives explicit and intelligible directions for preparing such dishes as he has him 
self actually tested in camp and on a cruise. This is just where the recipes differ from the 
absurdly impracticable dishes given in some so-called camp cookery books. The cooking 
outfit is described, and numerous hints on camp economy add to the value of the work.
