Book excerpt: Visit a land where fire and ice combined to create a remarkable landscape, with breathtaking sapphire blue water, primeval moss-covered forests, awesome lava formations, and waterfalls at every bend. Mount Mazama exploded 7,700 years ago, shooting a giant pillar of ash and pumice thirty miles high. The mountain collapsed in on itself, and over the centuries the red-hot volcano cooled and filled with pure snow and rain, creating one of the clearest, deepest lakes in the world. But Crater Lake is only part of the show. This gem of the Cascade Volcanic Arc is surrounded by much more.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than half a million years, volcano Mount Mazama towered over southern Oregon. From time to time, it erupted, spreading pumice, ash, and cinders for miles around. Then, approximately 7,700 years ago, Mount Mazama erupted with such force that the volcano could no longer support itself and it collapsed, leaving a large caldera. Eventually, the volcanic action subsided and all was calm. Over the next centuries, water and snow accumulated in the caldera. In 1902, Crater Lake became a national park.

Book excerpt: Crater Lake's unique beauty is one of Oregon's greatest natural landmarks. But when did Mount Mazama erupt? Was it 7,700 years ago? Or more recently--maybe 350-400 years ago? In this volume, Ralph E. Anderson explores this question and comes to a conclusion that may surprise the reader. What do the surrounding standing snags buried in ash have to reveal? Or what of the clues left by Mount Hood's last eruption, found in Crater Lake's ash? And what has Mount St. Helens's recovery taught about nature's resilience? Anderson spent the last four years traveling the Pacific Northwest, gathering evidence to discuss Crater Lake's Trees, Rocks, and Beyond.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two men played a crucial role in the creation and early history of the National Park Service: Stephen T. Mather, a public relations genius of sweeping vision, and Horace M. Albright, an able lawyer and administrator who helped transform that vision into reality. In Creating the National Park Service, Albright and his daughter, Marian Albright Schenck, reveal the previously untold story of the critical "missing years" in the history of the service. During this period, 1917 and 1918, Mather's problems with manic depression were kept hidden from public view, and Albright, his able and devoted assistant, served as acting director and assumed Mather's responsibilities. Albright played a decisive part in the passage of the National Park Service Organic Act of 1916; the formulation of principles and policies for management of the parks; the defense of the parks against exploitation by ranchers, lumber companies, and mining interests during World War I; and other issues crucial to the future of the fledgling park system. This authoritative behind-the-scenes history sheds light on the early days of the most popular of all federal agencies while painting a vivid picture of American life in the early twentieth century.
