Mixing Oil and Water: The Beginnings of Chautauqua at Fair Point treats the background and development of Chautauqua as a part of the imagination of H. H. Moore, Lewis Miller, John H. Vincent, and others in the Chautauqua Lake Camp Meeting at Fair Point and then since 1874 as the Chautauqua Assembly. The first decade of Chautauqua's existence as a church body (but independent) has not been examined carefully before. One can see the roots of many traditions coalescing in that first decade into what has become the powerful institution that is the Chautauqua of today.
