Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Voyageurs National Park chronicles the complex legal and political campaign to found Minnesota's only national park. Witzig's thoroughly documented and referenced research allows him to offer a detailed view of the unanticipated disappointments and defining moments of achievement that accompanied this complicated legislative battle. Concentrating on the period from 1962 to 1975, Witzig identifies and explains the central issues surrounding the campaign including land acquisition policy, local concerns and opposition to the park, interagency conflict over inclusion of U.S. forest lands, antifederal attitudes in northeastern Minnesota, and the overstated case for the economic benefits a national park would bring. Witzig covers of the dispute over the inclusion of Crane Lake in the park and focuses on the many individuals and groups who were instrumental in the establishment of Voyageurs National Park, such as Governor Elmer L. Andersen, John A. Blatnik, Sigurd F. Olson, and Rita Shemesh.

Book excerpt: "Over 250,000 people visit Minnesota's only national park each year. This popularity raises crucial questions: Can timber wolves thrive amid snowmobiles and jet skis? Can the thin layer of fragile soil atop the Precambrian shield, the oldest exposed rock on earth, survive the feet of campers? Voyageur Country explores these quandaries, describes the environmental significance of the park, and presents the only complete history of this important region." "The first paperback edition of this classic work includes an updated preface and chronology. The birth of the modern incarnation of Voyageurs as a national park is detailed, with accounts of the contributions of Sigurd Olson and other conservationists. Voyageur Country is an essential launching point for considering the policy that guides our relationship with the land."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book excerpt: Flying over the lakes and land masses that comprise Voyageurs National Park reveals the delicate tracings where water meets land. Puzzle pieces of rich green forest interlock with deep blue lakes varying in size from what seems from the air like a sliver to larger than a handprint. Steely gray rocks edge the boundaries between solid and liquid. Well above the treetops, the area appears as one vast wilderness, an uninhabited landscape left in its natural, uncultivated state. Descending, though, makes apparent the human presence. Bits of cleared land along shorelines disclose lodges, cabins, and docks. Motor boats carve out furrows in the blue fields, leaving behind a V-shaped trail of white foam. Some boats sit languidly on the blue waters with the fishers poking their lines into the immense depths, hoping for the "big one." A houseboat may pleasantly pass by or a sea kayaker might take on the challenge of following every nook and cranny of the intricate waterways. Another seaplane takes off across the water and rises into the sky.This study explores the park's origins and development. Park management must make its decisions with an eye toward the history, preservation of the natural and cultural resources, and recreational use. Not surprisingly, fulfilling this triple purpose has at times aggravated relations between the National Park Service and the people living within the area. This knowledge informs present and future park managers in their own decision-making. General readers also benefit from the information in this study. Local residents, local business owners, and local governmental officials gain appreciation for how their friends, neighbors, and colleagues advocated for issues important to the surrounding communities.
