I bought this book as a gift for a friend. She had just been hired on to a wildland fire Hotshot crew out west and her biggest fear in life was popping outdoors. A hotshot lives outdoors all summer long, on the fire line for 14-16 days at a time. Being able to poop in the woulda would be a very necessary skill! I read it before I gave it to her and she has told me that not only did she read it and love it, but that she purchased copies for others.

A great amount of people avoids the topic of toilet on Outdoors outings, which leads to them being unconfortable and on frequented trails... just a mess on the sides of the trail.
This books gives you explanations on diposal of waste, why and how. It also gives great advice on dealing with drinking water in the outdoors and talks at length about female hygene while in the outdoors.
You don't need to be a himalayan adventurer to get useful information from this book, if you go to the forest once in a while, if you take your kids there, this is interesting for you
En plus en excellent état .
Whilst the toilet humour aspect of the book might well have made a major contribution to it becoming "The International Best-Seller With Over 1 Million Copies Sold", the book is not merely a comedic escapade into outdoor toilets. It is a very conservation orientated work of helpful hints for causing the absolute minimum impact on our fragile environment in pursuit of the ultimate and possibly overwhelmingly pressing objective of bowel and bladder relief. Interwoven into the narration and advice is the most comprehensive collection of information possibly to be found on the subject of crap, as well as a veritable treasure trove of useful gadgets, and the 'bottom' line facts about the effects of excrement on the land and water.
This book when left prominently on your coffee table will soon cause either great hilarity or acute embarrassment among your guests, far more than the latest copy of 'Harry Potter' or similar, but either way it will solicit a reaction, that should lead to a fruitful and enlightening conversation on this most fundamental of all human bodily needs.
