Summary "Summer" by Dallas Lore Sharp is a nature writing book written in the early 20th century, likely during the 1910s. The book encompasses the author's reflections and observations of the natural world during a summer vacation spent outdoors, emphasizing the importance of nature study and the interconnectedness of living things. The opening portion of the book introduces the author's philosophy regarding outdoor education and the vital role of nature in a child's development. It initiates with a profound assertion that one cannot have a true vacation without engaging with nature, highlighting that nature study is essential for education, emotional growth, and imagination. The chapter “The Summer Afield” gradually shifts into a personal account of the author’s summer experiences, detailing his thoughts on becoming an outdoor enthusiast, the essential gear for exploring nature, and the myriad of plants and animals one can encounter in the wild. Through eloquent descriptions, Sharp aims to inspire readers to appreciate and connect with the natural world around them, encouraging them to embark on their own adventures in the fields and woods.
