Campsight: The (Mostly) Good Things About A Life Spent Outdoors (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780578745886)

In Campsight, Iain Eastman, a cantankerous high school science teacher, drops his curmudgeonly fa ade to explain the beauty of wasting time outdoors. Whether tapping maple trees, accidentally flooding neighborhood yards, or butchering the butchering of a deer, Eastman manages to connect to the outdoors in a way usually reserved for park rangers and maybe hermits. In this collection of 30 nature essays set against the backdrop of "camp" - his hunting cabin in Northwestern Pennsylvania - Eastman teaches his children the joys and pains (the many, many pains) of hunting, fishing, gardening, and other outdoor pursuits. Reflecting on his own childhood outdoor education, he tries, and sometimes even succeeds, in proving that everything is better when it's done outside.
