A History of Mt. Rainier National Park

by C. Frank Brockman.

-oOo-

Preface

Little published material is available regarding the history of Mt. Rainier National Park. With the exception of Meany's "Mt. Rainier - a Record of Exploration", which deals very exhaustively with one phase of this region's interesting past, nowhere will one find a publication that affords an intimate glimpse of the events and personalities that have contributed to the Mt. Rainier National Park that we know today.

If this issue of Mt. Rainier National Park "Nature Notes" succeeds in removing the "bushel" from the light of "The Mountain's" history, it will have served its purposes. (C.F.B.)

-oOo-

In this issue of "Nature Notes" we have made an effort to present historical events, in so far as they apply to Mount Rainier National Park, as accurately as possible. However, if anything of importance has been omitted or if any inaccuracies occur we would appreciate having such things called to our attention.

If such additions or changes are suggested, these should be accompanied by authentic references or other documentary proof. (C.B.F.)
