Over 634 million acres of the United States -- nearly a million square miles -- are federally owned. These American Lands is both a history and a celebration of that inheritance.

With over 75 pages of new material, the volume covers:national parksnational forestsnational resource landswildlife refugesdesignated wildernesseswild and scenic riversAlaska landsnational trailsEach chapter outlines the history of the unit of public lands under discussion, clarifies the resource use and policy conflicts that are currently besetting it, and provides a detailed agenda of management, expansion, and preservation goals.
