Hi there! =)
Not long ago, I've bought this book about hammock camping, because I wanted to buy my first hammock and I didn't know anything about hammocks and all the things you need to know about hammock-camping (how to hang it, how to stay warm, different suspension-systems, etc.)

In my opinion this book covers everything you need to know about hammock camping. You can read all about the basics in setting up the hammock and pitching the tarp, how to stay warm, it shows and explains the different types of hammocks, gives a great overview about suspension systems and more.

I've found a review about this book on youtube, where you can take a look inside the book and see some of the great illustrations =)

And there are also some Reviews at Amazon.com.

I really like this book and I think it is a must have if you are new to hammock camping, but also a good (but short) read for all the other hammock user =)

I'd of thought the kid's dad would have done this review instead of his mother. :(
