"Join our intrepid tour guides (a Sasquatch and a bald eagle) as they introduce us to the visionaries, artists, and lovers of the American landscape who fought against corruption and self-interest to carve out and protect these epic places for future generations. It's the story of the ongoing battle to ensure the most beautiful spaces in the world are not gated up or destroyed, but preserved and accessible to all! See for yourself how the idea of national parks began, how they've changed, and how they continue to define America."--,Page 4 of cover
