Revised with a new epilogue, "We the People," this fifth edition of
National Parks: The American Experience continues the highly
engaging story of how Americans invented and expanded the concept
of national parks. A prominent adviser to the Ken Burns Emmy
Award-winning documentary, The National Parks: America's Best Idea,
Alfred Runte is renowned as the nation's leading historian on the
meaning and management of these treasured lands. Further supported
with period photographs and now twelve pages of color paintings,
National Parks remains a stirring look into the lands that define
America, from Yosemite and Yellowstone to wilderness Alaska. This
is how we got our parks, and looking to the future, the challenges
that remain in preserving them. Are "we the people" still up to the
task? Yes, this history advises, but only if we consistently
cherish the national unity that our commitment to the parks further
demands.
