National Park Service Uniforms

Pages : 97
Book Description
The first uniforms to grace the national park (NP) system were worn by soldiers, who started to protect Yellowstone Park in 1886. The Army took Sequoia and Yosemite NP under their wing in 1890. When the parks and forest reserves were separated in 1905 and the latter were given uniforms, the civilian "scouts" or park rangers gave serious thought to their own identity. The Interior Dept. began to develop a uniform for the NP rangers, which changed over the years and in various parks. This is the story of the struggle by these early rangers as they tried to convince the bureaucracy to let them establish their own identity. Numerous photos and drawings.

Book Description
San Francisco is not known for detached houses with landscaped setbacks, lining picturesque, park-side streets. But between 1905 and 1924, thirty-six such neighborhoods, called residence parks, were proposed or built in the city. Hundreds like them were constructed across the country yet they are not well known or understood today. This book examines the city planning aspects of residence parks in a new way, with tracing how developers went about the business of building them, on different sites and for different markets, and how they kept out black and Asian residents.
