    "If its got pictures he'll read it." I love it...That is an instant classic line there. Good review...Derek's book has been a good one for sure...its about the only book I have read cover to cover in say 15 years, you can't count my hot rod magazines because that's all together different.

    Oh yeah, thanks for the review WM, I didn't really think I would have all that much use for that kind of a book. After seeing your review it just made it to my wish list... going to be a handy reference book and also for converting my buddy to hammock camping this spring.

    I agree really liked the book. The up-to-date info is what really impressed the gear junkie in me.

    Glad you liked it. Yeah I figured some people want to see a few pages in the book instead of me talking about it.

    Hey....I loved the ending of you two walking away. The Bumble looks to have fun doing these with you. Good stuff, yo'

    HAHA I figured those who knew my profession would get a kick out of the colored tags. I do little things most wont pick out.

    Yeah the Bumble is always down to shoot some scenes. We took a break from his school project to do this. Took us about an hour to shoot and then back to the Egyptians

    haha yeah The Bumble is a one line wonder sometimes. He could speak fluent sarcasm at age 5.

    Thanks for the great review! One thing I haven't seen yet is anyone picking out the "Easter Eggs" scattered about in some of the illustrations. Don't make me point them out

    Great through review WM as I have come to expect from you! Great place to point a few people who still need some convincing that a good read is necessary as a proper jumping off point.
