Finance ✦ Penny’s Take
Kraus' Recreation and Leisure in Modern Society
Daniel D. McLean · 2005
58/100
👎 Skip It
A solid, well-regarded college textbook if you're studying recreation and parks management, but it's built for a syllabus, not for pleasure reading. Useful in its lane, not a book most people would pick up on their own.
