Recent Articles In “National Parks Magazine”

The winter 2011 issue of National Parks Magazine as always has several articles of interest to fans of National Parks.  Two articles are on topics which I have written about previously on this blog.

“The Spice of Life” tells the tale of the ginseng plant and the threats to its existence in our National Parks.


A second article entitled “In Good Conscience” relays the not often told story of the role played by Conscientious Objectors in our National Parks during World War II.

Check out previous blog posts on these topics at:
