Indian Removal and the Making of the National Parks
Description
Examining the ideal of wilderness preservation in the USA, the author shows how the early (antebellum era) conceptions of the wilderness as the place where Indians lived gave way to the idealization of uninhabited wilderness. The policies of Indian removal at Yosemite and other parks are explored.
