Pressestimmen
“This book should be of interest for any scholar interested in studying camp employment experiences. Additionally, given Baker’s democratic style of writing, this book would be useful for undergraduate courses in the areas of outdoor leisure, and for camp industry practitioners looking for novel writing on counsellor experiences. … Becoming and Being a Camp Counsellor is a delightfully digestible book.” (John Hannant-Minchel, Annals of Leisure Research, April 8, 2021)“Becoming and Being a Camp Counsellor will be of interest to seasoned camp scholars, university students, and curious others eager to look beyond arts and crafts and evening campfire songs to expand their understanding of the camp counsellor experience. … Becoming and Being a Camp Counsellor is an insightful, thought-provoking, and novel investigation of the recreational summer camp experience. … This text would be most appropriate for upper-level courses in baccalaureate or post-baccalaureate programs.” (Robert P. Warner, Journal of Outdoor and Environmental Education, Vol. 23, 2020)
