This comprehensive guidebook for outdoors enthusiasts, campers, and cypher lovers includes chapters on the kinds of communications that you can do over a distance, including using symbols, light, sound, and flags. Send secret messages across great distances with Wells' cypher system and alphabet across the span of mountains or signal towers.


This vintage book includes timeless knowledge about outdoor communication and life outdoors! Although this book represents thought from a former time, it also reveals much about the rich history of outdoors recreation, and many of the tips, tricks, and discussions are still relevant for study today!
