Farewell Song --Epilogue: Landscapes of Memory and Myth --Chronology of American ConservationCrimes against Nature reveals the hidden history behind three of the nation's first parklands: the Adirondacks, Yellowstone, and the Grand Canyon. Focusing on conservation's impact on local inhabitants, Karl Jacoby traces the effect of criminalizing such traditional practices as hunting, fishing, foraging, and timber cutting in the newly created parks. Jacoby reassesses the nature of these ""crimes"" and provides a rich portrait of rural people and their relationship with the natural world in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.ACLS Fellows’ publications.National parks and reservesSocial aspectsUnited StatesNature conservationSocial aspectsUnited StatesNational parks and reservesUnited StatesHistoryNational parks and reservesSocial aspectsNature conservationSocial aspectsNational parks and reservesHistory.333.78/0973333.780333.780973Jacoby Karl1965-1228018MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910496150203321Crimes against nature2851035UNINA
