Each park contributes to a deeper understanding of the history of the United States and our way of life; of the natural processes which have given form to our land, and to the enrichment of the environment in which we live.” WayHas BeensIdeasStatesTodayAmericaFormGivenProcessUnderstandingNaturalUnitedUnited StatesEnvironmentGenerationsLandSucceedDeeperParksNational ParksEnrichmentDeeper Understanding Author:George B.
