A Bibliography Of National Parks and Monuments West Of The Mississippi River (Vols 1 and 2) Compiled at the Western Museum Laboratories of the National Park Service with assistance by the Work Projects Administration and the CCC.

Both volumes of this complete two volume set are in very good+ and near fine conditions. Both are small quartos of 10 1/4 by 7 3/4 inches bound in adhesive bindings in light brown cloth covered boards with darker brown text on the spines and front boards. The cloth at the head and heel of volume I is rubbed and worn and the upper fore corners of the front and rear boards are bumped, but professionally straightened and strengthened. Volume II shows only light wear to the cloth at the head of the spine and the text block for this volume was made from two-hole punched paper. Volume I is made from standard, un-holed paper. Both volumes contain four index tabs each. In volume I: Northwest Inland States; Pacific States; Yellowstone; and, Yosemite; Volume II: Central States, Southwestern National Monuments; Southwestern States; and, Territorial Parks and Monuments. These two volumes contain 664 pages of bibliographies on 79 national parks and national monuments each one with its own pagination. This bibliography is not listed in any of the WPA or American Guide resources held by Town's End Books. OCLC locates only five institutions owning the book version of this title. The forward contained in volume I mentions that this project started in 1936 with: where "much credit is due Mrs. Hazel Hunt Voth for originally laying out the program and directing it until her resignation in April, 1939." Hazel Voth's other other major accomplishment was A Bibliography of Yellowstone National Park which is reprinted in this set.
