Oh, Ranger! A Book About The National Parks is a comprehensive guide to the national parks of the United States, written by Horace M. Albright, who was the first director of the National Park Service. The book covers the history, geology, flora, fauna, and recreational opportunities of each park, as well as practical information for visitors such as park hours, accommodations, and activities. Albright's love for the parks is evident throughout the book, and he provides personal anecdotes and insights that add to the reader's appreciation of these national treasures. First published in 1928, Oh, Ranger! has been updated and revised over the years to reflect changes in the park system and to include new parks. This book is a must-read for anyone planning a trip to a national park, as well as for those who simply want to learn more about these remarkable places.1935. Illustrated by Ruth Taylor.
