--LATE BREAKING ADDITION!--
Special added noontime reading. Terry Tazioli and the TVW Author's Hour program crew tape a special onstage interview with Seattle author, John Miles, who will discuss his new book, Wilderness in National Parks (University of Washington Press). Wilderness in National Parks casts light on the complicated relationship between the National Park Service and its policy goals of wilderness preservation and recreation. By examining the overlapping and sometimes contradictory responsibilities of the park service and the national wilderness preservation system, John C. Miles finds the National Park Service still struggling to deal with an idea that lies at the core of its mission and yet complicates that mission, nearly one hundred years into its existence. John C. Miles is professor of environmental studies at Western Washington University, Bellingham, Washington.Location:
