Reminds me of the Boys Own books my father gave to me to read as a boy. His father bought them for him. Great to pick up on a slow Sunday to find something interesting to do.

Thanks! Cool!

but WHY IS THAT BOOK CENSORED!!!!!

The original version had a copyright date and attribution, and some jew stripped it from that file.

Willfully stripping copyright is a TREBLE DAMAGES penalty, with a base minimum civil penalty, if a year is still remaining on US copyright.

What fucker altered that OCR scan?

The actual physical camera scan has all 300 uncensored pages, including copyright page :

it is a cool reference. not the best, but decent to flip through for ideas.

not sure why the copyright was stripped. maybe something to do with project gutenberg?

Not only was the copyright stripped, the origin publishing year is nowhere to be found, and that is really annoying.

Traps are gay.

The title is misleading, as there is a lot more than just traps in the book. snares, camping, survival stuff, etc.. not the best book out there, but decent enough for keeping in the library.

I think the witty retort is :

"Traps are Fake and Gay"
