Brown WE. 1991. A history of the Denali - Mount McKinley Region, Alaska: historic resource study of Denali National Park and Preserve. National Park Service, Southwest Regional office. Santa Fe, New Mexico

This report evaluates and provides a historical overview of Denali’s historic resources. This historical narrative, of the Denali region in Alaska, aims to meet three needs: (1) to provide context for evaluation and understanding of the historic resources of Mount McKinley, now Denali National Park and Preserve, and- together with the forthcoming historic-sites volume- a basis for preserving and managing those resources; (2) to provide a comprehensive historical overview and thematic development to assist park interpretation; and (3) to give park managers a sense of the park’s historical continuity, its recurrent problems, and its evolving management philosophy.
