Fire Lookouts: Civilian Conservation Corps - Paperback

by La Vaughn Vanderburg Kemnow (Author)

The Civilian Conservation Corps was activated in the early 1930s to provide jobs for unemployed young men. Their accomplishments included the construction of many lookouts, roads, trails and telephone lines. The historical information in these volumes is the culmination of many years of research of original documents by Ron Kemnow for his website, ronkemnow.weebly.com. Also included are many historical photographs. Some of the older photographs and picture postcards are of poor quality, but were included for their historical value. This book is not in narrative form, but is a collection of official reports, letters, and news articles, presented as they were originally written.
