OConnell Pearson tells the story of the Civilian Conservation Corpsone of Franklin Delano Roosevelts New Deal projects that helped save a generation of Americans.When Franklin D. Roosevelt took office in March 1933, the United States was on the brink of economic collapse and environmental disaster. Thirtyfour days later, the first of over three million impoverished young men were building parks and reclaiming the nations forests and farmlands. The Civilian Conservation CorpsFDRs favorite program and miracle of interagency cooperationresulted in the building and/or improvement of hundreds of state and national parks, the restoration of nearly 120 million acre of land, and the planting of some three billion treesmore than half of all the trees ever planted in the United States.Fighting for the Forest tells the story of the Civilian Conservation Corp through a close look at Shenandoah National Park in Virginia (the CCCs first project) and through the personal stories and work of young men around the nation who came of age and changed their country for the better working in Roosevelts Tree Army.
