Attitudes and characteristics of campers reached by two Federal campsite reservation programs in experimental use during the summer of 1973 were surveyed. Most campers strongly favored reservations, but preferred that one company sell reservations to all government campgrounds. Questionnaire responses indicated need for a systematic procedure for referring campers to vacant campsites, along with a more effective program of information on the reservation systems. A majority of campers were satisfied to get their first choice of campground, but a few also wanted freedom to choose their campsite. The typical camper was a well-educated, high-income professional or manager, with considerable camping experience. His job allowed him to plan his camping trips in advance and he preferred to do so, though often he planned less than 5 weeks ahead.

For every summer from 1916 to 1948, Camp Meenahga, on the picturesque shoreline of Lake Michigan in Door County’s Peninsula State Park, hosted young girls and women from across the United States and Canada. From July to September each year, campers slept in canvas tents, told stories beside a massive stone fireplace, swam, canoed, sailed, hiked, rode horses, and watched the sunset from the Lookout, a gazebo with a spectacular view of the waters of Green Bay. With big ideas, little money, and no experience, Alice Orr Clark and Frances Louise “Kidy” Mabley founded Meenahga as a place for young women to refine their manners, enjoy outdoor leisure activities, and learn woodcraft. From the Lookout is an account of these experiences, a history of Camp Meenahga informed by what campers, counselors, and others left behind, including letters home, notes from Clark and Mabley, and many pages from the camp yearbook and newsletter Pack and Paddle. Brimming with nostalgia, From the Lookout brings to life the sights, sounds, and smells of an idyllic summer retreat, one that long after it closed lived on as a place of respite in the memories of those who knew and loved it best.

Au milieu du dix-neuvième siècle, deux protestants suisses offraient chacun au monde francophone une nouvelle traduction biblique. Le premier, Auguste Perret-Gentil, pasteur neuchâtelois, avait traduit l'Ancien Testament d'après l'hébreu ; le second, Albert Rilliet, historien de la Réformation, après un labeur considérable de comparaison critique, donnait un Nouveau Testament traduit sur le manuscrit grec dit Vaticanus. Si aujourd'hui ces deux ouvrages ne sont plus depuis longtemps réédités, ils n'en ont pas moins exercé une certaine influence sur les traductions subséquentes. Leur nouveauté la plus remarquée, et aussi la plus contestée, consistait dans l'éloignement qu'elles osaient prendre avec la version Osterwald, depuis longtemps traditionnelle chez les protestants. Celle de l'Ancien Testament, semblait se rapprocher de la version allemande de De Wette, tandis que celle du Nouveau rompait résolument avec le texte reçu. Il était donc intéressant de les réunir dans un même volume, non seulement pour cette raison historique, mais encore parce que chacune de nos deux traductions possède son charme particulier. L'Ancien Testament de Perret-Gentil, par...
