The Adirondack Atlas offers a detailed geographic portrait of the largest protected area in the contiguous United States and the largest region of protected temperate forests in the world. Generously illustratedcomplete with 450 fullcolor maps and 250 figures, graphs, tables, charts, and scientific drawingsthis volume covers 130 topics on the sixmillionacre Adirondack Park. As the first book of its kind, it is both a work of art and an authoritative reference. The Park has a complex history. It is one of the only parks in the world to combine large wilderness areas with extensive private lands and a substantial residential population. Jerry Jenkins explores this connection between the wild and human communities within a protected landscape. As he maps out the diverse and everchanging environmentthe recreational growth, conflicts between users, development, pollution, and climate changehe highlights elements that threaten to alter the Park and undo the protection it now enjoys. Jenkins includes old stories of fur routes and battles, log drives and Shea engines; new stories about school taxes and education, conservation easements and local economies, artistic ferment and social ills, about healthy towns, dying trees, and deer harvests. As a comprehensive and standard resource, the Atlas captures the full scope of the park's topographic, hydrographic, and ecological history for a wide audience of geographers, historians, and Adirondack enthusiasts.
