Under the Stars: How America Fell in Love with Camping

Under the Stars provides an irreverent history of American camping. The American wilderness was once an indomitable and deadly wilderness but now it's a source of adventure and relaxation. From the High Sierra to the Everglades, author Dan White traveled across vaunted spots of natural beauty. Using examples of naturalists like Emerson, Thoreau, Roosevelt, and Muir, White  reveals a nation of nature lovers who care about Leave No Trace as much as they care about nature itself.
