520 2 "Drawing on more than thirty years of meticulous research,
Kay Rippelmeyer details the Depression-era history of the
simultaneous creation of the Civilian Conservation Corps
(CCC) and the Shawnee National Forest in southern
Illinois. Through the stories of the men who worked in CCC
camps devoted to soil and forest conservation projects,
she offers a fascinating look into an era of utmost
significance to the identity, citizens, wildlife, and
natural landscape of the region. Rippelmeyer outlines the
geologic and geographic history of southern Illinois, from
Native American uses of the land to the timber industry's
decimation of the forest by the 1920s. Detailing both the
economic hardships and agricultural land abuse plaguing
the region during the Depression, she reveals how the
creation of the CCC under Franklin Delano Roosevelt
coincided with the regional campaign for a national forest
and how locals first became aware of and involved with the
program. Rippelmeyer mined CCC camp records from the
National Archives, newspaper accounts and other
correspondence and conducted dozens of oral interviews
with workers and their families to re-create life in the
camps. An extensive camp compendium augments the volume,
featuring numerous photographs, camp locations and dates
of operation, work history, and company rosters.
Satisfying public curiosity and the need for factual
information about the camps in southern Illinois, this is
an essential contribution to regional history and a window
to the national impact of the CCC"--|cProvided by
