When Pres. John F. Kennedy established the Cape Cod National Seashore in 1961; it was acclaimed as the "finest victory ever recorded for the cause of conservation in New England." When erosion and overdevelopment threatened the Cape; the idea of a national seashore took hold; forever protecting this treasured place. The park preserves 44;000 acres of forest; marsh; bog; and ponds; and a 40-mile stretch from Provincetown to Chatham; which Henry David Thoreau called the "Great Beach." Unlike other national parks at the time; the Cape Cod National Seashore was created from a combination of private; town; state; and federal lands. Cape Cod National Seashore: The First 50 Years captures the political drama of the creation of this extraordinary seashore. Images detail an early Native American presence and the romance of whaling; shipwrecks; lighthouses; windmills; and dune shacks.
