Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rock Creek Park, an Administrative History The late Jim Redmond had a deep appreciation for the park he super intended. He valued its importance as a natural oasis in the nation's capital, and he also valued its historical significance. Looking forward to its centennial in 1990, he spoke to me several times about nominating Rock Creek Park to the National Register of Historic Places. In 1983, shortly before Jim's death, Regional Director Jack Fish of the National Park Service's National Capital Region asked if I could do an administrative history of the park. The history was needed to provide background for a park general management plan. It could also serve as documentation for a National Register nomination, if responsible managers and staff in the park and regional office wished to pursue that course.

Book excerpt: Washington, D.C.'s Rock Creek Park stands as a wild and wonderful natural gem among a burgeoning metropolis. But while local residents flock to its trails and roads on weekends to hike, jog and bicycle, they are largely unaware of its diverse history. The park's grounds were the site of the bloody Civil War Battle of Fort Stevens, and presidents like Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson exercised and picnicked in the park the same way many visitors do today. From the cabin of eccentric poet Joaquin Miller to the oldest house in Washington today, the many stories and legends surrounding the park are sure to entertain and inform. Join National Park ranger, author and historian Scott Einberger as he traces the human, natural and urban history of Rock Creek Park, the largest park in the nation's capital.
