The Early Days: A Sourcebook of Southwestern Region History — Book 1

Mr. Fred H. Kennedy, Regional Forester, authorized my work on the twin historical projects; this history, and the Forest Service Museum at Continental Divide Training Center. His support and encouragement were major factors in their completion.

Mrs. Gladys Day Jackson. former Region 3 editorial assistant, should receive full credit for her collaboration on the History. She transcribed the taped interviews, typed and edited the manuscript, and gave suggestions for its improvement. Her assistance was invaluable.
