Reenacting and Living History Resources


A Pilgrim's Journey by Mark A. Baker -- This book is a compilation of the first ten years of Mark Baker's column from Muzzleloader Magazine.

I don't know about you, but I have been a fan of Baker's for years... his ideas and articles are not only useful for his time-period, they also translate well to other time periods. Mark Baker truly IS one of the leading lights of "Experimental Archeology."

A Pilgrim's Journey contains over 300 pages of treks, scouts, hunts and how-to. Baker shares his knowledge and insights gained from wilderness experiences, extensive research, and from his partners and mentors along the way. Join Mark as he takes his pilgrim's journey back to the 18th century frontier. From flintlocks and moccasins to shooting bags and knapsacks, Baker explores the way of life of the Colonial woodsman. Learn about the clothing, accoutrements, food and skills from an era that helped forge the American Spirit and a new nation. Softcover. 306 pages with over 250 quality illustrations and photos, including many new photos in and updated layout.


A Pilgrim's Journey Volume Two by Mark A. Baker -- This book is a compilation of the next ten years of Mark Baker's column from Muzzleloader Magazine.

Join Mark as he continues his pilgrim's journey back to the 18th century frontier. From flintlocks and moccasins to shooting bags and knapsacks, Baker explores the way of life of the Colonial woodsman. Learn about the clothing, gear, food and skills from an era that helped forge the American spirit and a new nation.


Tidings from the 18th Century -- A great book that will help anyone with their 18th Century impression. Not only that, any impression of the Frontier era will be helped by reading this material. Not only does it show you things like sewing techniques, but also other crafts and it does so in a period manner. I can't say enough good things about this book!

Firearms, Traps and Tools of the Mountain Men by Carl P. Russell -- This encyclopedic guide to the equipment of the trappers and fur traders who opened the Old west is a unique reference work that can be classified either as a history or as archaeology. It describes and discusses hundreds of iron artifacts - rifles, shotguns, hatchets, axes, knives, traps, and miscellaneous tools - used by the mountain men from the early 1800s to the mid 1840s. Illustrated with over 400 drawings, the book begins with a useful background history of the western fur trade. The book will send every frontier buff scurrying to re-examine his rusty treasures, and every museum of western lore to set up new exhibits.

Last Stand at Old Man's Creek by Eugene C. Stevens -- In the spring of 1832, 275 Illinois militiamen under the command of Major Isaiah Stillman were sent on a mission to capture or destroy the infamous Chief Black Hawk and subdue the warriors that followed him into Illinois to reclaim their homeland. Stillman?s expedition earned the title of the ?Forlorn Hope,? as they found themselves up against superior numbers of warriors with the very real possibility of being completely wiped out. A small contingent of Rangers held their ground and covered the retreat of their fellow Rangers. Many lost their lives, but many others lived to tell the truth about what had really occurred on that day. Last Stand at Old Man?s Creek is the true and correct story of what occurred and the aftermath of the battle that would smear the names of the men who were there. This finally answers the questions that have lingered for nearly two centuries about the circumstances surrounding the surprising defeat of the militia on that fatal day.
