Customer Reviews

Insightful and inspiring

This is a much more interesting book than the previous, jaded, bored-sounding reviewer has inferred. Makes me wonder if that person is intentionally trying to cast this book in a dark light. I found this book to be inspiring, insightful, and very informative. I'm an RN, as well as a writer, and found the descriptions of camp life very helpful. Read it yourself and form your own opinion. I have no axe to grind.
