Wilderness has always defined America. Even now, we are still inextricably intertwined with the vast beautiful landscape that has shaped our history, ideas, art, and view of the natural world. Our national parks embody this deep, almost sacred relationship with the land. In this engrossing, gloriously illustrated book, award-winning author Kim Heacox introduces the colorful characters who played key roles in creating these uniquely American sanctuaries and traces their powerful visions of nature and nation, from transcendentalism to Manifest Destiny to today's preservationist credos.
