The well-known Farm & Wilderness (F&W) camps, founded in 1939 by Ken and Susan Webb, resembled most other private camps of the same period in many ways, but F&W also had some distinctive features. Campers and staff took pride in the special ruggedness of the surrounding environment, and delighted in the exceptional rigor of the camping trips and the work projects. Importantly, the Farm & Wilderness camps were some of the first private camps to become racially integrated.<em>The Farm & Wilderness Summer Camps: Progressive Ideals in the Twentieth Century</em> traces these camps, both unique and emblematic of American youth culture of the twentieth century, from their establishment in the late 1930s to the end of the twentieth century. Emily K. Abel and Margaret K. Nelson explore how ideals considered progressive in the 1940s and 1950s had to be reconfigured by the camps to respond to shifts in culture and society as well as to new understandings of race and ethnicity, social class, gender, and sexual identity. To illustrate this change, the authors draw on over forty interviews with former campers, archival materials, and their own memories. This book tells a story of progressive ideals, crises of leadership, childhood challenges, and social adaptation in the quintessential American summer camp.</p>...2165517The Farm & Wilderness Summer Camps413573https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-farm-wilderness-summer-camps/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/1994836/040cb13e-376c-4c95-99a3-eb550c40f895.jpg?v=638345130647370000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20239781978836655_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9781978836655_<p>Although summer camps profoundly impact children, they have received little attention from scholars.
