1912 Directory of Portland, Vol. 53: Including the City of South Portland, and the Town of Cape Elizabeth, Complete Street Directory, Revised Map of the City and Vicinity (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book examines the longstanding and intricate relationship between the United States and its national parks, exploring how the country's environmental policies intersected with tourism, nationalism, and the conservationist movement. The author argues that the evolution of national parks has not been a linear progression but rather an ongoing negotiation of competing interests, resulting in varying levels of environmental protection over time. This nuanced approach challenges traditional views of park management history, providing a more comprehensive and authentic narrative of the interplay between nature preservation and the pursuit of recreation and economic gain.
