Description

A unique idealism, a mystique, is the foundation of the National Park Idea. It will not survive without advocacy and consistent defense. These memoirs follow that theme in a nearly day-to-day record of the author’s experience working for the National Park Service and the University of Montana.

Parts 1A and 1B cover 1949-1965, the period during which the author’s career goal was established, and subsequent years working for the National Park Service, primarily in Yellowstone National Park.
