Résumé du livre
A study of threats to national parks (noise and water pollution, smog, industrial spills and acid rain) from a political perspective. The focus is on two cases: the proposed mining of the tar sands of south- central Utah, near Canyonlands National Park, and poor air quality in several western parks caused by pollution.
