Amazed by its stalagmites and sheer enormity, he purchased the site and began transforming it into Cathedral Caverns, a spectacular tourist attraction that eventually became a national natural landmark in 1973 and a state park in 2000. Had it not been for Gurley's hard work and dedication, this cave, a geological treasure of international renown, might have remained a little-known hole in the ground." -- From cover. 410 0$aImages of America. 606 $aChurch 607 $aCathedral Caverns State Park (Ala.)$xHistory$vPictorial works 607 $aAlabama$xHistory$vPictorial works 607 $aMarshall County (Ala.)$xHistory$vPictorial works 607 $aAlabama$2fast 607 $aAlabama$zCathedral Caverns State Park$2fast 607 $aAlabama$zMarshall County$2fast 615 0$aChurch. 676 $a262.02 700 $aSnow$b Whitney A.$01653143 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910826284903321 996 $aCathedral Caverns$94004264 997 $aUNINA
