Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Rocky Mountain National Park: A History is more than just the story of Rocky Mountain in its brief tenure as a national park.

Origins of the national park ideas are followed into the recent decades of the Park's overwhelming popularity. It is a story of change, of mountains reflecting the tenor of the times.

Rocky Times in Rocky Mountain National Park
Author: Karl Hess
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
Drawing from his years of biological research within and adjacent to the sixth most visited park in the US, and from files and reports of the park's own biologists, Hess presents a strongly worded, well- documented indictment of gross mismanagement. His analysis diverges from Alston Chase's Playing God in Yellowstone in a number of respects; the case he makes is his own, and he presents a proposal for rescue.
