Product Description
Sex in the woods is not as simple as it sounds. Sure, you know the basics (after all, if you don't, you probably shouldn't try it in the wilderness), but what about all the little details that should be considered before embarking on an alfresco rendezvous that can make the difference between love under the moon and stars and love on the cold, hard ground? For example, what sex essentials should be part of your first-aid kit? What kind of camping equipment provides particular comfort for two? What are the effects of the elements on condoms, spermicides, and other contraceptives? How do you find that perfect spot for your love den? And how about foreplay, personal hygiene, and protection from pesky plants or adverse weather conditions while you're exposed?
How to Have Sex in the Woods answers these and other questions for the millions of hikers, backpackers, and campers who know that there's more than one way to commune with nature and that a campfire is good for more than just roasting marshmallows.
How to Have Sex in the Woods is full of useful, factual information, covering all the practical how-tos that every amorous camper should know but may have been afraid to ask. It is a must for anyone looking forward to his or her next outing a deux.

 Not that funny and I don't need a manual. July 30, 2007
I thought this book would be a funny read for my die hard outdoor friends. It was not. While slitley amusing it is far to serious and not in a good (adult) way. Some how they have managed to almost take the fun out of the title.
 Fun, but probably won't utilize September 20, 2006

Since the two of us our avid wilderness campers I thought this would be an important book for us. It caught our eye at the bookstore and we new we had to have it.
For the most part the book contained little that we had not already known. There is no doubt some good practical ideas are brought up. For the die hard "rough it" camper the book is more for entertainment. It is a fun book. For the occasional Jellystone camper one should find it more pertinent. Although the book is meant for the outdoorsmen miles from home, we find that time restraints would forgo its use.
Not an informational book July 30, 2006

This book was so unfortunately lacking in honest information that I just had to write a review on it.
Sex, sex, sex, we all love it and we know it sells. So what do you do if you need to make some money? Sell it. This book capitalizes on that in so many ways. If you remove the quick stories about people's encounters you find half a page of information per page.
For example:
The paragraph on "Games for One" goes on and on but simply amounts to "sure... go for it!"
Pages 164 - 168 simply list odd laws in US State which the author admits "may or may not" be true. If reads like some lame e-mail your Uncle Alvin sent you right after his forwarded chain letter and before his "joke of the day."
The cover itself doesn't even take the book's advice!
Page 35, "The Love Palace" - "In the store it might not seem to matter. But consider the color that will be reflected through your tent in the morning light. Choose a warm color like red, beige, yellow, or amber for at least the top half of your tent. As the morning sun penetrates the tent, you and your loved one will be bathed in warm, dreamy skin tones, as opposed to HARSH COLD BLUE LIGHT." What does the cover have? A blue tent. One would think if the book were read and not just pieced together with clipart and kinky stories they would have caught that.
Further, Page 79 - "Lighting Effects" "Be forewarned: Lanterns create great shadows that can entertain passerby or onlookers for miles around." Again, our cover has a nice lantern within.
In summary, while this book DOES have a few key points here and there it was really lacking in content. It needed more imaginative group activities, more options for sex with another and oneself, etc. The stories were fun but only minorly referenced the section they were in. In all, combine the high-school level book reading style and irrelevant text and cover and you find yourself with about 45 (of 180) pages of actual content.
Pass on it.

I can't be quite sure what to make of receiving this book as a gift, not being much of a person to be roughing it in places where the sun don't shine. But a quick skim had me smiling. Imagine instructions to make out a hammock (delicately of course), to keep your sleeping bag dry, and some erogenous games to play in the "woods", even if that means your own backyard. Guess it makes for a pretty fun gift for "back to nature" friends and as such it's a good laugh. Don't expect to end up becoming Fabio.

No real information here. I guess that says a lot about my lifestyle and love for nature. A good read to just give opportunity for reflection upon current practices and maybe even some ideas.
