Hammocks Return to Modern Living From Oceanic Past
A National Geographic Society survey notes hammocks selling around 100000 units in 1977, marking a big jump in a $5 million American market. The piece traces hammocks from Arawak and Carib history to Nelson era navy racks, WWII shifts, and a current revival in homes and rec rooms.
