reagan_lei's review against another edition
3.0
I read this book for a background on the nature study movement and how it corresponded with The Conservation Movement...
It's an alright book. I think my rating would be 3.5 stars.
There is a focus on rural and urban children; however, it only really focuses on white people rather than people of any other race or nationality.
It also appears to repeat the same thing over and over and over, but I guess that means the message stuck with me. I dunno.
I would have never read this on my own. Also, the author is not a great person.
Maybe this book does not deserve 4 stars... anyways...
I have a book review to write on this for class now.

This was a very academic look at the history of integrating an appreciation of nature and ecology into the American education system. It was enlightening in ways to see how things developed over time, but at other times it was far too technical.
If I never see the word 'pedagogy' again I will be very happy.
