Description

This memoir chronicles the author's eight summers, from age six to age thirteen at Camp Winona, a well-established boys' summer camp in southwestern Maine.

Descriptions of the majestic, albeit rustic, surroundings-pine forest, lake, mountain ranges, lodges, cabins, tents-invite readers into a world of natural beauty and primitive charm. Anyone who has ever spent time on a lake or in the woods of northern America will easily connect with these sensory accounts.

While guiding readers through a succession of events, activities, and human interactions the author reveals his coming of age. Recalled are the agony of homesickness, camaraderie with good friends, the complexities of making new friends, the pain of failure, and the ecstasy of accomplishment. Also featured are many of the traditions unique to Camp Winona.

Regardless of whether or not one has attended a summer camp, the memories here recount amusing, if not familiar, sets of circumstances which relate to young lives in general. The unique setting of a summer camp in Maine simply adds to the amusement.
