I read, or rather looked at, the Knack tree house book previously and was unimpressed. It showed a lot of pictures of tree houses, but didn't have much useful information. The Knack car camping guide was just as visual, which is the point of the series, but offered up a bit more instruction. I've been camping a few times in my life, but checked out this book to see if I was missing anything or could do it better. A lot of things contained in the book are no-brainers, but I did glean a few things that hadn't occurred to me before. Not a bad book for those starting out on camping adventures.

Good resource if you've never gone camping before.

A bit basic. Common sense for camping newbies.
