Hardcover. Etat : Very good. Etat de la jaquette : Very good. xv, [3], 940, [2] pages. Illustrated end papers. Illustrations. Maps. Appendix. Notes. Index. Theodore Roosevelt's crusade on behalf of America's national parks. Douglas Brinkley (born December 14, 1960) is an American author, Katherine Tsanoff Brown Chair in Humanities and professor of history at Rice University. Brinkley is the history commentator for CNN and a contributing editor to the magazines Vanity Fair and American Heritage. A public spokesperson on conservation issues, Brinkley serves as an editor at Audubon Magazine. He joined the faculty of Rice University as a professor of history in 2007. Brinkley worked closely with his mentor, historian Stephen E. Ambrose, then director of the Eisenhower Center for American Studies at the University of New Orleans. Ambrose chose Brinkley to become director of the Eisenhower Center, a post he held for five years before moving to Tulane University. Brinkley is the literary executor for his late friend, the journalist and author Hunter S. Thompson. Derived from a Kirkus review: A vigorous, detailed and carefully documented biography of the visionary president who put so much land and so many resources in the public trust. Brinkley makes an important contribution to our understanding of Theodore Roosevelt as conservationist and preservationist by providing both a personal and an intellectual genealogy. His father was a founding member of the American Museum of Natural History in New York, where young Theodore logged considerable time. On the intellectual front, he was an ardent student of animal life. Certainly, his active interest in the outdoors and constant sojourns in wild places helped Roosevelt overcome youthful sickliness. The author also shows us how, as president, Roosevelt brought so much of the public domain under the strong protection of the federal government, adding to the national parks, forests and lands systems. He did this in part by working a network of like-minded preservationists. Magisterial and timely. First Edition [Stated], First Printing [Stated]. Nick Springer (Maps) (illustrateur).…

paperback. Etat : Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only. …
