"Hassle-free camping is a pleasure, and this field-tested resource is a complete guide."--Outdoor Traveler

In The Essential Family Camper, Zora and David Aiken combine hundreds of tips gleaned from their own experiences and from campers around the country to present field-tested advice for convenient and enjoyable family camping--anytime, anywhere. The Aikens detail everything you need to know, including comprehensive "what to take" lists, how to pack (and repack), how to set up and take down your camp, cooking in the outdoors, and even camping with your dog. The Friday Pack-and-Go Planner will help you get the family on the road quickly and easily--leaving nothing behind but stress, hassles, and your normal routine. The Essential Family Camper covers all the bases, including

  • Camping from your car, van, or canoe
  • Choosing, preparing, and restoring campsites
  • Cooking, safety, and sanitation
  • Environmentally friendly camping

For weekend getaways or more adventurous trips, The Essential Family Camper is your ideal guide.
