Large Collection of free Vintage Bushcraft ebooks

Apologies if this has been posted before, but new to me.

Came across this great link to lots and lots of free to view and download, digitised vintage books about camping and outdoor life.

Mostly U.S. based, and older but the core principles remain valid today, wherever you find yourself...

Found it on this excellent Canadian blog, where he highlights a few particularly interesting books...

No worries. Actually I've just been playing around with the search terms on archive.org (e.g. removing "americana", adding various terms) - trying to narrow down list to my own sphere of interests etc

Its a great site and has been discussed here a few times over the years. Well worth looking through/searching the video section.
