A Leisure of One's Own is a unique introduction to issues and questions about women and their leisure, offering a social psychological analysis from a feminist perspective. The book is clearly set out to enable the reader to examine the various aspects of women's leisure and to continue with further research and analysis. The authors begin by examinin g the reasons for studying women and leisure, and continue by investigating the patriarchal structures in society through the past century. These are then re-examined from the feminist perspective, revealing a parallel between the changing social roles of women and their recreational and leisure opportunities. At the end of each chapter there is a useful summary which provides a framework for further analysis and research into the future of women's leisure.

On July 31, 1869, twenty-two members of the holiness movement of the Methodist church gathered to pray on a beach on the New Jersey shore. Before long, Ocean Grove was established as “God’s Square Mile,” the first permanent camp meeting dedicated to both religious and recreational pursuits. In this richly illustrated history, Troy Messenger looks at the numerous informal amusements of summer life at Ocean Grove and provides a glimpse into a fascinating moment in the development of both nineteenth-century religion and American leisure culture. Like other seaside resorts of the time such as Atlantic City and Coney Island, Ocean Grove boasted a festival atmosphere and offered such events as baby parades, oriental bazaars, pageants, beach games, ushers’ marches, and drills by the Young Rough Riders. Guests were forbidden to drink, smoke, play cards, or drive their cars on Sunday, but they were encouraged to enjoy other diversions that would have scandalized pious Methodists of an earlier era, such as taking the summer off, relaxing on the beach, attending popular amusements, and staging comic gender satire with cross-dressed men. At Ocean Grove, even seemingly frivolous activities had a higher purpose: every aspect of daily life was focused on the attainment of perfection and was considered a performance of “holy leisure.” The genius of Ocean Grove, Messenger argues, was in extending holiness from the parlor meeting to the beach. Here, conservative evangelicals discovered a moral imperative to enjoy rest and recreation. By praying and playing together, the people of Ocean Grove acquired a unique understanding of self and community, one that illuminates the liberal social-reform movements of the nineteenth-century religious middle class and the early leisure industry.
