Our Heritage: A Plan for its Protection and Use - "Mission 66"

National Park Service. 1957. Our Heritage: A Plan for its Protection and Use - "Mission 66". National Park Service. Washington, D.C.

All Americans, whoever and wherever they may be, share in that great heritage which is represented by our National Park System - our scenery and our historic shrines. As our vacation lands, they bring enjoyment and refreshment of mind, body and spirit to millions of Americans each year. But today grave problems beset that heritage. What those problems are and how they can be solved by prompt and vigorous actions are outlines in this booklet. The Department of the Interior, charged by Congress with preserving and protecting our heritage for the benefit and enjoyment of this and future generations, has taken the essential first steps toward solution of these problems with a comprehensive, forward looking program developed by the National Park Service.
