Do your weekends fly by? Are you too often at work on Monday wondering at how you had squandered your hours of freedom with indecision and idle contemplation of amusement, without actually amusing yourself? This companion to The Week-End Book promises for Americans what that august compilation bestowed upon the Brits: an endless cornucopia of timeless entertainment and relaxing activities. From creating and flying a variety of kites to rigging and sailing a small boat, from advice on what to pack for a picnic to tips on bird-spotting, from odd rules for forgotten games to instruction in practical taxidermy, this book gathers clever pursuits and pastimes of yesteryear.
