Land acquisition involved agreed-upon sale of private property, government condemnation of property through eminent domain proceedings, and the still novel concept of scenic easements as a selective alternative to fee simple acquisition. Just compensation for condemned lands became a prominent feature of eminent domain trials when wide discrepancies arose between government and private appraisals. Where utilized, scenic easements offered a largely successful and mitigating option to forced relinquishment of lands. INTRODUCTION During the nineteenth century, preservation-minded indi- viduals and government leaders established western parks such as Yosemite and Yellowstone out of the public domain. But as the public desire for more parks grew throughout the twentieth century, the NPS began adding "retro-parks" (not created out of the western public domain) such as the Will Sarvis received B.A. and M.A. degrees in history from Virginia Tech. 2 WESTERN lEGAi, HiSTORY VoL. 131 No. 1 9 WESTERN LFGAL HIsTORY Vot.. 13.
