Sobre este artículo
Albuquerque: University of New Mexico Press, 2003. First Edition, First Printing. Cloth and boards. Fine/Near Fine. B&W photos. SIGNED by the Author on the front free endpaper, tall 8vo, black quarter cloth with silver gilt lettering on spine over gray boards, illustrated with 8 pp. of B&W photos, archival mylar-protected color photographic dust jacket (unclipped) depicting the author in Park uniform, Index, xiii, [xiv] + 272 pages. Melody Webb (b.1946) was a Park Service veteran and is a distinguished historian. <br /> <br /> A Woman in the Great Outdoors recounts her 21 years in the National Park Service and many efforts to preserve our country's resources despite political controversies and efforts by special interests (among them, mining and lumber interests, hunters, snowmobilers, bicyclists, RV owners, film producers and concessioners) to take over, exploit--and ofttimes despoil--our splendid natural heritage.<br /> <br /> Webb is married to Robert M. Utley (b. 1920), former chief historian for the National Park Service and the author of numerous award-winning biographies of Custer, Sitting Bull, and Billy the Kid. <br /> <br /> SUPERIOR COPY! Textblock solid, pages bright and clean, no annotations or marginalia. No previous owner or remainder marks.
