Synopsis
This book examines the ideal of wilderness preservation in the United States from the antebellum era to the first half of the twentieth century, showing how the early conception of the wilderness as the place where Indians lived (or should live) gave way to the idealization of uninhabited wilderness. It focuses on specific policies of Indian removal developed at Yosemite, Yellowstone, and Glacier national parks from the early 1870s to the 1930s.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. National parks like Yellowstone, Yosemite, and Glacier preserve some of this country's most cherished wilderness landscapes. While visions of pristine, uninhabited nature led to the creation of these parks, they also inspired policies of Indian removal. By contrasting the native histories of these places with the links between Indian policy developments and preservationist efforts, this work examines the complex origins of the national parks and the troublingconsequences of the American wilderness ideal. The first study to place national park history within the context of the early reservation era, it details the ways that national parks developed into one ofthe most important arenas of contention between native peoples and non-Indians in the twentieth century. Examines wilderness preservation in the United States from the antebellum era to the first half of the twentieth century, showing how the early concept of wilderness as the place where Indians lived (or should live) gave way to the ideal of uninhabited wilderness.
