m-mman Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 This is the first "Motor Camping Book" from 1921. Supposedly the oldest and first book to describe how to travel & camp in a motor car. I was most interested in the oldest-first directions about how to use the "Egyptian" water bag. (AKA "Desert" water bag) in an automobile. Everyone has seen them but I had never found good instructions before. Original Directions - DONT hang it on the side of the car, it will scratch the paint, hang it from the top bows. 😉 Now who ever displays one that way? Lots of other neat stuff like how to carry the baby, with the bassinet secured to the running board. 😲 The book is in the public domain. This link is for a (free) PDF copy of the book. Searching the title and author, you can also find new printed copies. https://books.googleusercontent.com/books/content?req=AKW5QaeFxJtDWZfZUMsvPwVW97zUkh3xspraUD8LL1ZpplDbAjLWZ2mgWSktnK8i_0q8SnBC_rhxtZ1pgPTJTcKh29JIGOYwDI8G6_nvdZ6KBlBgO4NjkNq65vkR2AJMQ0UD0b0n6PCvST41nNbWfSkkaHWLBgZTB0IzmYKkR4ZX0z7vW6WkPxujPYlosWCg2txSgDOAPiV_CRHOpBmLyFLbJexALhm6OmAbBkbG7iy9V-DNrYnoQzPscRUw_883KQtCoCXalHuQZAzQLIhK3YMgTw45Xt3-Ww 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
