Book excerpt: Excerpt from Conserving Richmond's Battlefields: A Collaborative Project Among Concerned Citizens; Local Planning, Preservation and Promotion Groups; Chesterfield, Hanover and Henrico Counties; The City of Richmond; The Commonwealth of Virginia; And the National Park Service With community guidance and review, thirty-two battlefield locations were identified and their condition assessed. During extensive public discussion of local concerns, issues, and goals, and based on a thorough resource evaluation, a collaborative approach to battlefield conservation surfaced. It is called the richmond CIVIL war heritage initiative. The goal is to conserve, through Cooperative private and public action, a necklace of Civil War battlefields from the North Anna River to Petersburg. These battlefields would be strung with clusters of high-quality heritage interpretive sites, recreation opportunities and related visitor services. The main elements in this approach include: A Heritage Council of community representatives that coordinates battlefield conservation, interpretation and promotion activities. A conservation incentive program for landowners and local governments within the battlefield settings that includes a formal recognition of the battlefield settings, a development review process that is responsive to historic values, landowner incentivesfor voluntary conservation (i.e. Resource identification, site planning assistance or project review) and conservation of critical community and battlefield values.

Book excerpt: In this exhaustively researched book, Georgie Boge and Margie Boge analyze the issues and controversies surrounding the preservation of Civil War battlefield sites, and offer a pragmatic development program designed to accommodate the needs of both historic preservation and economic growth. Not only do they provide a framework for developing actual preservation strategies, they show how important historical, cultural, and natural resources can be preserved with economic benefit to the community. After exploring the special importance of battlefield sites to the nation, the Boges discuss existing policies for preservation. Through extensive case studies, they demonstrate the inadequacies of current mechanisms, and present a detailed policy program that could effectively protect the remaining land, and also help save other historically or culturally significant sites.
Download or read book Collateral Values written by Todd R. Lookingbill and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-30 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the unanticipated benefits that may arise after wars and conflicts, showing how the preservation of battlefields and the establishment of borderlands can create natural capital in the former landscapes of war. The editors call this Collateral Value, in contrast to the collateral damage that war inflicts upon infrastructure, natural capital, and human capital. The book includes case studies recounting successes and failures, opportunities and risks, and ambitious proposals. The book is organized in two sections. The first visits U.S., English, and French battlefield sites dating from medieval England to World War I. The second explores borderlands located on several continents, established to end or prevent conflict. Both of these can create value beyond their original purpose, by preserving natural areas and restoring biodiversity. Among the topics covered are: · Registering English Battlefields · Old forts and new amenities in the Southern Plains of the U.S. · Verdun, France, and the conservation of WWI cultural and natural heritage · Conservation lessons learned in the Cordillera del Condor Corridor of the Andes mountains · Korea’s DMZ and its nature preserve · Wakhan National Park, a mountainous buffer area between Afghanistan and Pakistan The book examines state-of-the-art applications of landscape ecology, including methods for change detection, connectivity analysis, and the quantification of ecosystem services. Also included is a chapter on a creative proposal for “Guantánamo 2.0,” which would transform the Gitmo detention facility into a peace park and ecological research center. A concluding chapter appraises the past, present, and future of Collateral Values. Collateral Values: The Natural Capital Created by Landscapes of War benefits a broad audience of advanced undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, and practicing professionals.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Richmond National Battlefield Park, Virginia Richmond National Battlefield Park preserves the scenes of some of the great battles that took place in the vicinity of the Confederate Capital. When we visit these now quiet, peaceful woods and fields, we feel an association with our past that is impossible to achieve with the written or spoken word. Here we are not reminded of the Blue or the Gray as such, only of the heroic Struggle of men - men with two different beliefs and philosophies, welded together by the blood of battle, to give us our America of today.
