The 50 great pioneers of American industry; the stories of Rockefeller, Swift, Edison, Woolworth, Squibb, Proctor, Sears, Otis, Singer, Carrier, and 40 other business leaders and courageous innovators whose activities founded major industries and shaped today's economy
In 1886, at the first session of Rawlinsville Camp Meeting, the founders could not have imagined that they were initiating what has become a one hundred year old institution in Southern Lancaster County. Rawlinsville Camp Meeting is a cohesive force among the Methodist churches of the area, and has influenced the lives of literally thousands of persons across five generations...Rawlinsville Camp Meeteing is owned by the fourteen United Methodist Churches in Southern Lancaster County, and all income is used in support of the program and physical facilities...In recognition of the centennial anniversary, the Rawlinsville Camp Meeting Association commissioned a commemorative booklet and appointed a committee to produce it. The history of the 'camp' in the 50th anniversary song book was so well done and so complete that it has been reproduced here. It is followed by an expanded view of the camp background plus, of course, history and information pertaining to the second fifty years." [forward]
