Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Camp Vernon is a heartfelt novel about the kind of place that becomes far more than a campground. For more than forty years, Arthur Richmond has devoted his life to Camp Vernon on the shores of Spider Lake near Hayward, Wisconsin, where generations of families return each summer to fish, celebrate, and create traditions that have become as enduring as the towering pines themselves. From Christmas in July and Thanksgiving in June to Fourth of July boat parades and Halloween costume contests, Arthur has quietly built a community that feels less like a vacation destination and more like home.At the heart of the story is Arthur's lifelong friendship with Vernon Halloran, a man who first arrived at the campground in 1978 carrying the weight of a broken marriage and a fractured family. What begins as a chance meeting between two strangers grows into a decades-long bond that helps shape not only Vernon's life, but the lives of every family that calls Camp Vernon their summer home. Through laughter, loss, fishing stories, holiday celebrations, and quiet evenings around the fire, the campground becomes a place where people heal, reconnect, and discover that family is often chosen rather than inherited.When tragedy suddenly strikes, the campers are forced to confront the heartbreaking question of whether the spirit of Camp Vernon can survive without the man who devoted his life to it. As old friendships are tested and new leaders emerge, the campground's future hangs in the balance. Yet even in grief, the traditions Arthur created refuse to fade, reminding everyone that the greatest legacies are measured not by buildings or land, but by the lives touched along the way.Warm, nostalgic, and deeply emotional, Camp Vernon is a celebration of friendship, tradition, second chances, and the enduring power of community. Set against the beautiful backdrop of Wisconsin's Northwoods, it is a story about ordinary people whose quiet acts of kindness leave extraordinary marks on generations to come. For anyone who has ever called a campground, cabin, or lake their second home, this novel is a poignant reminder that while people may pass on, the places they fill with love can continue to shape lives for decades afterward.…
