Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Celebrates the dedicated men and women of our National Park Service (NPS) who have safeguarded the nations natural legacy for 100 years 2016 marks the 100th anniversary of the creation of the National Park Service 125 images including many archival photosAnyone who has stood beneath a redwood, neck craned to see its top rising far above; or who has heard ghostly whispers of residents longpast among the burntred cliff dwellings of Mesa Verde; or who has climbed the stairs to gaze out from the Statue of Libertys crown, would agree that our National Park system is a source of pride and wonder.But 100 years ago, creating a bureau to administer Americas vast and diverse parks was a concept requiring great debate and persuasion. The story of the National Park Service is the story of people who fought for the protection of the places that have helped to define our national identity, those places we now hold dearfrom the blue hazy mist that hangs over Great Smokey Mountains National Park to the spouting geysers of Yellowstone to the thick, steamy waterways of the Everglades. The NPS founders were the architects of our family vacations, the inventors of icons with worldwide appeal. They battled progress, which often masked greed and ignorance, and their story continues with those who molded and grew the NPS through a flu pandemic, the Great Depression, World Wars, and beyond.Prophets and Moguls, Rangers and Rogues, Bison and Bears is the engaging and accessible story of the NPS that brings to life its history and characters. The result of extensive research, dozens of interviews with Park Service employees, and the authors own experiences at park units she visited all over the country, its a highly readable history that connects the dots of past to present and will remind readers of the vast array of public assets administered by the NPSresources which offer something for everyone and also need every citizens support.Mountaineers Books is proud to support the work of the National Park Foundation
