内容简介:
The companion volume to the twelve-hour PBS series from the
acclaimed filmmaker behind The Civil War, Baseball, and The
War
America’s national parks spring from an idea as radical as the
Declaration of Independence: that the nation’s most magnificent and
sacred places should be preserved, not for royalty or the rich, but
for everyone. In this evocative and lavishly illustrated narrative,
Ken Burns and Dayton Duncan delve into the history of the park
idea, from the first sighting by white men in 1851 of the valley
that would become Yosemite and the creation of the world’s first
national park at Yellowstone in 1872, through the most recent
additions to a system that now encompasses nearly four hundred
sites and 84 million acres.
The authors recount the adventures, mythmaking, and intense
political battles behind the evolution of the park system, and the
enduring ideals that fostered its growth. They capture the
importance and splendors of the individual parks: from Haleakala in
Hawaii to Acadia in Maine, from Denali in Alaska to the Everglades
in Florida, from Glacier in Montana to Big Bend in Texas. And they
introduce us to a diverse cast of compelling characters—both unsung
heroes and famous figures such as John Muir, Theodore Roosevelt,
and Ansel Adams—who have been transformed by these special places
and committed themselves to saving them from destruction so that
the rest of us could be transformed as well.
The National Parks is a glorious celebration of an essential
expression of American democracy.

媒体评论
Praise for the PBS series:
“Stunning and restorative, like the parks themselves.” —Timothy
Egan,
The New York Times
“A masterful historic document, a vivid portrait of the land set
against the stories of those who worked to acquire it and then
protect it against those who still would dismantle or compromise
it.” —David Hinckley,
New York Daily News
“Beautiful and erudite . . . Underneath its wonder,
The National
Parks
is really about how Americans learned (or failed to
learn) proper stewardship of nature.” —Hank Stuever,
The
Washington Post
