Wooden Canoes are in the Blood
I found this review in a recent NYT Book Review interesting.
It covers, ""Under the Stars; How America Fell in Love with Camping" by Dan White, and "Landmarks" by Robert Macfarlane, which examines British terminology for various outdoor activities, including, "Turd Nanny" for example, one I wasn't familiar with in spite of attempts to canoe trip leaving "No Trace".
