| 520 | |a Since they were first established in the 1880s, children's summer camps have touched the lives of millions of people. Why were summer camps created?

It argues that summer camps delivered much more than a simple encounter with the natural world, but rather a man-made version of wilderness, shaped by middle-class anxieties. | ||
