Camp William James

At the invitation of President Roosevelt, Rosenstock-Huessy undertook to reform the Civilian Conservation Corps by turning it into a universal service, open to young persons from all walks of life. That story is told in Camp William James. From the preface by the American historian Page Smith, who was a member of that original camp: "Today when the Congress of the United States considers proposals to reestablish, along new lines, a corps of young people volunteering for national environmental service, it is instructive to note that many of the issues as to the proper role, recruitment, and organization of an 'ecology army' were first confronted and debated by the founders of Camp William James." Rosenstock-Huessy wrote in 1945: "Our peacemakers and planners must be supported by camps all over the globe, where youth, recruited from every town and village all over the globe, serves. This service must implement the global organization as the young must experience what the old are planning before the old can have any authority."
