Title: Dispossessing the Wilderness Author: Mark David Spence Narrator: Kaipo Schwab Format: mp3 Length: 7 hrs and 32 mins Release date: 09-19-23 Ratings: 4 out of 5 stars, 4 ratings Genres: Indigenous Studies Publisher's Summary: National parks like Yellowstone, Yosemite, and Glacier preserve some of this country's most cherished wilderness landscapes. While visions of pristine, uninhabited nature led to the creation of these parks, they also inspired policies of Indian removal. By contrasting the native histories of these places with the links between Indian policy developments and preservationist efforts, this work examines the complex origins of the national parks and the troubling consequences of the American wilderness ideal.
