Download or read book National Park Zine written by Daniel Shepardson and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-09-18 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National Park Zine is produced by Nature First Publishing. It integrates nature photography with natural history to tell a story about a national park as a series of lived experiences. Each issue focuses on a different national park through color as well as black-and-white photography to provide the reader with different perspectives on the geology, plant communities, and wildlife found in each park. The visual story in each issue thus captures the majesty, power, and mystique of a national park. It is hoped that this will afford readers the opportunity to experience national parks in ways they may not have been able to do firsthand. In this issue, we explore Indiana Dunes National Park. The Park was originally established as a national lake shore in 1966, becoming a national park in 2019. This issue closely follows the Dunes' geological formation and evolution as well as plant succession. It is organized around four environments: beach, dunes, woods, and wetlands.

The second edition of Dreams of Duneland beautifully illustrates the dunes region, from the past to the present. Since the first edition, the Indiana Dunes area has become an official national park. With more than 400 stunning images, many of them new, Dreams of Duneland showcases the breathtaking sand dunes, as well as the rest of this newly minted park, which includes savanna, wetland, prairie, and forest and is home to a wide variety of plant and animal species. Kenneth J. Schoon reveals how the preserved area of the Indiana Dunes National Park—which sits by residential communities, businesses, and cultural attractions—has a long history of competition among farmers, fur traders, industrialists, and conservationists.
