US president Franklin D. Roosevelt called for the creation of the Corps in 1933 to put unemployed men to work creating parks and forests across the country. It lasted until 1942. In the latest of several guide books, writers and photographers Ren Davis and Helen Davis offer a brief history of the Civilian Conservation Corps, then describe national and state parks, region by region, projects the Corps took on, and the legacy that remains today.
