Lesson 47-2 The great escape
The modern
traveller is often a man who dislikes the Splendide and the Bellavista,not because he cannot afford, or shunstheir material comforts, but because he is afraid of them. Affluent he may be,but he is by no means sure what to tip the doorman or the chambermaid. Masterin his own house, he has little idea of when to say boo to a maitre d’hotel.
From all suchfears camping releases him. Granted, a snobbery of camping itself, based uponequipment and techniques, already exists; but it is of a kind that, if he meetsit, he can readily understand and deal with. There is no superior ‘they’ in theshape of managements and hotel hierarchies to darken his holiday days.
