A Woman in the Great Outdoors: Adventures in the National Park Service Book

This book had been in my TBR pile for a long time, but a trip to the Chickasaw National Recreation Area in Sulphur, Oklahoma recently made me want to pick it up. In a happy coincidence, Webb recounts her brief stint as interim superintendent of the park as part of her recounting of a long career with the National Park Service. A big part of the.book documents how bureaucracy and politics sometimes stand in the way of what is best for preserving our country's nature and history, but much of the book is inspiring in its appreciation of the treasures we have and the people who band together to preserve them.
