Spirit of Winter Camping

<p>Aldrich was an architect in Minneapolis, MN, and part of a circle that was celebrating a "back to nature" movement". The book is a manual for city-folks who want to build their own log cabin retreat, and it is written with wit and anecdotes that makes one imagine that most readers were reading and dreaming, not actually building. The book so full of opinions, rhetorical questions and ponderings that I found it a most annoying read. Like many such works of the period, the pseudo-outdoorsman tone and descriptions will ring hollow to readers today (sort of like Walden). I would never read it for fun, but it is nigh unto scripture for architectural historians studying the cabins of the well-to-do in this period. Four stars for historical values.</p>
