Mentioned this in a comment on the fighting kites article. There seemed to be interest, and then I found a version online, and it's out of copyright so you don't have to feel guilty about downloading it, so here it is for your amusement. It is equal parts informative, inspiring, and horrifying, and has lovely illustrations.
Here is a companion book, the book of Camp Lore and Woodcraft.

The Field and Forest Handy Book is even better. Details building dams, huts, sleds, and flat-bottom boats.
