Book Reviews of Be Expert with Map and Compass: The Complete Orienteering Handbook

Book Review: How do you use a compass?
Summary: 5 Stars

A good guide on how to use a compass to navigate in the backcountry. It also goes into details of the sport of orienteering. Many practice examples, and orienteering exercises included. If you plan on using a GPS with a compass, and aren't interested in orienteering, get 'GPS Land Navigation; A Complete Guidebook for Backcountry Users of the NAVSTAR Satellite System,' it tells everything you need to know to use a compass, plus how to use it with a GPS.
