Lincoln Parks: The Story Behind the Scenery

Larry Waldron

Travel

On August 25, 1916, President Woodrow Wilson signed the act creating the National Park Service. This amazing government agency preserves America's finest treasures, beginning with Yellowstone National Park established in 1872. The stories of the nation's growth and ideals are told at historic buildings, important landmarks, battlefield sites, and inspirational memorials. Learn the story from three men who lived it for 75 years. Pictures of 119 park areas -- from national parks, seashores, and rivers to national historic parks and scenic trails -- reflect the wide diversity of the system. Each book in The Story Behind the Scenery series tells a compelling story through the eyes of an experienced interpreter whose writing reflects true enthusiasm for the park. Complete with running text and interpretive captions, accompanied by abundant full-color photographs, these books will be welcome in any home library. 96 pp., over 160 color photos, map.

Death Valley is the hottest place and the lowest place. Death Valley is the seared landscape, the spring "belly flowers", the tumbled rocks, the snow-capped peaks, and the bluest skies. Death Valley is, most of all, the most magnificent of deserts! 
Death Valley National Park, in eastern California and western Nevada, was first set aside in 1933 to preserve this unique desert that includes the lowest point in the Western Hemisphere.

This is a unique collection of information about the Southern Paiutes, which covers mythology and folklore, traditional crafts, historical stories, and information about the Paiute language. LaVan Martineau began collecting a lot of the information in this book during the 1940s from individuals still maintaining the old ways, while their culture eroded beneath their feet. These elders willingly shared this information with Mr. Martineau. Little did he realize that within a few decades almost no one under the age of 50 would still speak the Paiute language, and even fewer would still know the traditional stories and crafts. Discover the charming winter tales that were told in during the wintertime after the pinyon nut harvest in Fall, each story was designed to be morally instructive. Learn how the Paiute made bows and arrows, baskets, cradleboards, moccasins and more. You'll even get a primer on the Paiute language. A unique document from a vanishing period.
