This book traces the history of the Civilian Conservation Corps, "Roosevelt's Tree Army," through text and photos.
Although forest protection and improvements were the first priority, three million "boys" of the CCC also provided park development, disaster relief, soil erosion control, wildlife protection, historical restoration, and a multitude of other services that benefited America for years.
This book explores many aspects of the CCC's history: its organization, camps and camp life, work projects, and training and education.
