Not just for placid retirees anymore, camper culture has sprung up among simplicity-seeking millennials, retro-loving \"glampers,\" sports and movie stars, aging hippies, contract workers, \"road-schoolers,\" and others. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Award-winning journalist Dave Hoekstra hit the road in his own custom camper van, named Bluebird, to explore the history, culture, subcultures, and future of camper life. Traveling and talking his way through US campsites, RV parks, landmarks, and communities, Hoekstra draws out revealing stories from all walks of life--from Americans who are downsizing material goods while upsizing spiritual pursuits to RV enthusiasts such as Grammy-winning singer-songwriter John Prine and Chicago Cubs manager Joe Maddon. A modern-day Studs Terkel, Hoekstra provides a delightful mix of oral history, in-depth reporting, and practical information, while photographer Jon Sall's beautiful color photographs illuminate the unique people, places, and rigs that typify camper life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dave Hoekstra\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 161373820X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781613738207\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Chicago Review Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 8.20w x 0.50d","brand":"Dave Hoekstra","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43989386920191,"sku":"9781613738207","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b44f3155-62ec-4056-b165-4bae4480299f.jpg?v=1683299196","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-camper-book-dave-hoekstra-9781613738207","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
