Book excerpt: This handbook is·a response to the sesquicentennial celebration of the birth of Frederick Law Olmsted. Enlarging our ability to communicate our recreational needs and desires is a subject that demands our collective advocacy. We have attempted to help the reader learn to articulate constructive demands for recreation and for recreational facilities. Our tribute to Frederick Law Olmsted uses his works and words as a beginning point for this handbook-long definition of the nature of recreation. And we have attempted a meeting and an embrace between the performances of recreation and the physical places and spaces such performances desire to occupy. At best, this book will help you see some things that you have always seen but never seen.
