註釋
Describes how our national parks and wilderness areas, and the agencies that manage them, have come to be. Bridging the gap between the detailed monographs and the standard references, this book provides an up-to-date, historical introduction to the policy process affecting America's wildland, emphasizing why certain policies occurred, rather than just what happened. Treatment is integrative and in-depth, covering the early national parks, wilderness, and the contemporary urban national recreation areas. Text discusses societal conditions and group conflicts involved in the shaping of wildland policies. Author includes biographical material on key figures and detailed treatment of specific incidents. The three major policy events are embedded in a more general historical development, providing needed context and continuity.
