Reviews:
  • This is a guide to children's play in America, beginning with colonial times. Part I is a narrative history of play, using many primary and autobiographical sources.... Part II consists of a lengthy narrative bibliography of relevant sources, an alphabetical checklist of books and articles, and a description of major research collections. Mergen, a professor of American civilization at George Washington University, has written a book that is both scholarly and accessible. Recommended for research collections in child study, recreation, and American culture.
