Description
This official history takes both the long view and the wide view of the Forest Service in California, capturing an essential aspect of the Golden State - the ever-changing view. It presents the history of the region, along with a conservation theme to unify the work. The book briefly explains the early history of California’s forests and how they came under Federal control. It then provides a descriptive and analytical look at the rise and development of the national forests of California and adjacent areas of the region from 1905 to 1987, covering such crucial period as the Progressive Era, the New Deal, World Wars I and II. The book ends with a short epilogue, which summarizes some of the significant events that occurred in the Pacific Southwest Region from 1987 to the present. 676 Pages; 7 Maps; 174 Historical Photos; index
