WILD GIRLS: How the Outdoors Shaped the Women Who Challenged a Nation
by Tiya Miles
USED BOOK: Hardcover, Like New – Photos are of the actual book you’ll receive. This has no noticeable damage, no writing – appears to never have been used.
A New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice
A Publishers Weekly and New York Public Library Best Book of the Year
Named a Most Anticipated Book of the Year by The Millions and Literary Hub
An award-winning historian shows how girls who found self-understanding in the natural world became women who changed America.
This beautiful, meditative work of history puts girls of all races—and the landscapes they loved—at center stage and reveals the impact of the outdoors on women’s independence, resourcefulness, and vision. For these trailblazing women of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, navigating the woods, following the stars, playing sports, and taking to the streets in peaceful protest were not only joyful pursuits, but also techniques to resist assimilation, racism, and sexism. Lyrically written and full of archival discoveries, Wild Girls evokes landscapes as richly as the girls who roamed in them—and argues for equal access to outdoor spaces for young women of every race and class today.
“Thoroughly absorbing.… A beautiful synthesis of diverse women’s experiences, combining history with memoir and a call to action.” —Jill Watts, New York Times Book Review

This is the story of a child experiencing their very first turkey hunt. It is a celebration of the outdoor lifestyle and an encouragement to immerse children in the outdoor experience. “From high up in the treetops, we hear the turkeys stir. Sounds of wings and snaps of branches, a hen lightly yelps and purrs.” Filled with the excitement, joy and respect a first hunt often brings, Chasing Turkeys will leave you ready to take to the field to make some memories of your own.
This book was written for those raised to chase the wild.

Outdoor Survival Skills – Fifth Edition, Revised and Expanded
By Larry Dean Olsen
Foreword by Robert Redford
(This edition as a new book now sells for more than the cover price when published.)
USED BOOK: Very Good – Few side pen marks in beginning pages of book – very minimal and no writing. Rest of pages are clean. Some bends in the corners of the covers and inside pages, but does not restrict reading at all. Inside pages include illustrations and black and white photos. Appendix in back of the book includes colored photos of plant identification. Photos are of the actual book you’ll receive.
Outdoor Survival Skills has taught three generations of wilderness adventurers how to survive in nature without expensive purchased equipment, instead drawing on knowledge of the land and carefully tested techniques, many of them ancient, for finding or creating shelter, fire, tools, water, and plant and animal foods. In this new edition, anecdotes from the author’s lifetime of experience provide thrilling examples of the skills and attitudes that ensure survival outdoors.
Big Game Gut Glove “Reusable” Long Field Dressing Gloves are perfect for any big game, such as deer, elk, moose, bear, hogs, gators, African animals and many more. Just wash them off and you are ready for your next hunt!
Available sizes in XSmall to Medium to fit youth and women! And these gloves feature a self-tightening shoulder grip to keep the gloves from slipping down your sleeves/arms.
As hunters, we also often spend so much money on our camo clothing and materials – so why not take a small step to protect them?! A small investment for protecting hundreds of dollars worth of gear. Extra long 26-inch length keeps your clothing from the blood, messes and smell of big game field dressing.
Made from tough, synthetic rubber, these gloves give you added protection from bones, errant knife and saw cuts, and other sharp hazards (like broadheads!) while field dressing. Big Game Gut Glove field dressing gloves allow you to work more quickly and firmly with less fear of cutting yourself during field dressing. You’ll gain confidence while field dressing, knowing you can work safely and quickly.
Because of the tough materials these gloves are made of, they are also great for messy jobs or jobs that require submersion of your hands into potentially dangerous or noxious chemicals or liquids.
Two gloves are included in the packaging: a left and a right glove.
Refer to product gallery photo for sizing information.
Editor’s Note: I have been using Big Game Gut Glove field dressing gloves for years, and not only do I love them for protecting my hunting clothing, but also they have definitely saved me (more than once!) from a cut on my hand from my own accidental knife mishandling while field dressing. I love how thick and long these gloves are – so much better than the cheap, throwaway gloves!
Sizing tip – for a woman, I have pretty large, long hands so in women’s gloves I am often a size large and men’s gloves I am often a size medium. These gloves are in men’s sizes so I find them true to fit and use a size medium. See the product gallery photo for sizing measurements, but hope this helps! ~Jen

While big box coolers have their place to hold ice for days, they are too heavy and bulky to take on the go. This soft sling cooler is perfect for your outdoor adventures! Pack it with a lunch for on the lake or in the woods, sling it over your shoulder and GO! Or pack it with drinks for a group adventure! Features two additional pockets so it’s versatile to put other essentials or items in as well!
Editor’s Note: I received this camo sling cooler as a gift years ago. It quickly became something I was constantly taking along on my outdoor adventures so I had to order it with the ADVENTURESS logo so it can be handy for others! I most commonly use it for fishing (both open water and ice fishing), turkey hunting and hiking. I also recently did a biking journey of more than 200 miles with it slung over my back, packed with my keys, a phone charger, first aid items, water bottle, lunch and a book for all my rest stops! It goes with me so many places – I hope you’ll enjoy it as much as I have! ~Jen
