What factors create a successful resort? How did the rise of lavish hotels and spas reflect the changing values of American society as the nineteenth century progressed? Historians have argued that resorts were created to meet the demands of a leisured social elite. Theodore Corbett offers a fresh, compelling argument, demonstrating that resorts created and re-created themselves to keep pace with changing times. Success came with anticipating demands, not just reacting to them. Using an impressive variety of historical documents, Corbett focuses on the conditions underlying the rise--and the demise--of the resorts at Ballston Spa and Caldwell on Lake George. Both towns' major landlord-developers saw tourism as only one vehicle that could lead to success. As a result of their divided policies, neither town invested in the proper infrastructure to make tourism an immediate succes. Both places were soon overshadowed by Saratoga Springs, which became the premier resort of the upper and middle class. Due to complex interwoven influences, Saratoga Springs was able to supply the amenities needed to attract and retain the patronage of the well heeled. The town provided visitors with lavish hotels, parks, public squares, pleasure gardens, and convenient service alleys. Saratoga Springs also had a work force that was available for the five-month period per year that the spas were active. Corbett examines the history and participation of various ethnic groups in the resort's service sector: African Americans, Irish, and Native Americans. Corbett also stresses middle-class America's emulation of the leisure habits of the English aristocracy. Even though these pursuits (hunting, fishing, horse racrting) were dominaterd by men, social rituals were dominated by women, and resorts that accommodated "public domesticity" thrived as the century progressed. The Making of American Resorts offers a window into shifting public values and the structure of commercial tourism.

Not illustrated. 1921 edition. Excerpt: ... BACK TO A'NTIOCH OUR furloughs in fifty-six years of ser- vice, with a brief release of four months, during which time he made a flying trip to America, is the record of Hunter Corbett's so-called vacations. These cessations from labor in China were little other than change of scene, for the work was pushed in the homeland with much of the same vigor that characterized it abroad. But in the change there was rest., Hunter Corbett was patriotic to the core. Feelings of loyalty for his native country were accentuated during the time of his absence from America, and upon his return the views of her cities, mountains, valleys, fields, and peaceful homes, were refreshing nectar to his soul. They were also the unfolding of the leaves in God's great book of the nations, and as a wide-awake student of events and conditions, he read his lessons there as the train rushed by. Then, too, these periods of release gave him opportunity to keep his friendships in repair, which was one of the cardinal principles of his life. It is difficult to picture Paul and Barnabas returning to Antioch from their missionary journeys with more genuine happiness of heart than Hunter Corbett experienced when landing at San Francisco or New York. He had tasted some of their experiences, had been gladdened by similar blessings and had rejoiced in them, and like those first missionaries, it was his delight to gather the church together and rehearse all that God had done and how he had opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles. His first furlough was taken in 1875. The records of this first visit to the homeland are extremely meager, but they are freighted with interesting occurrences. He came with his three motherless children to the home of his parents at Leatherwood, ..
