    National Park Service U.S. Department of the Interior Wildland Fire Program A Test of Adversity and Strength Wildland Fire in the National Park System By Hal K. Rothman NPS/J HENRY A Test of Adversity and Strength: Wildland Fire in the National Park System By Hal K. Rothman, Principal Investigator National Park Service Cooperative Agreement Order #CA 8034-2-9003 Special Consultant: Stephen J. Pyne Research Associates: Lincoln Bramwell, Brenna Lissoway, and Lesley Argo Project Managers David Sproul, Michael Childers, and Daniel Holder i Fire is the test of gold; adversity, of strong men. Seneca, Epistles ii Executive Summary The National Park Service’s mission, unique among federal agencies, has made its history of fire policy diverge from that of its peers. Federal fire protection began in the national parks in 1886, when the U.S. Army assumed administration of Yellowstone National Park. After the trauma of the 1910 fire season and creation of a civilian National Park Service in 1916, the new Service embraced the U.S. Forest Service’s policy of aggressive fire suppression. For almost fifty years, suppression was policy, a reality that only began to change in the 1950s. The Leopold Report, published in 1963, further articulated differences in the National Park Service’s mission with its call for parks to be managed as “vignettes of primitive America.” Following passage of the Wilderness Act in 1964, federal agencies – including the NPS – were compelled to reassess their management plans in the context of the new law. Steadily, each federal agency found its mission redefined and its goals recast; this translated into a more diverse spectrum of fire practices, at once splintering the former unity of purpose that surrounded suppression while demanding new ideas and devices to reintegrate those fragmented parts.

  • Cartographic Records of the Forest Service
    PRELIMINARY INVENTORY OF THE CARTOGRAPHIC RECORDS OF THE FOREST SERVICE (Record Group 95) Compiled by Charlotte M. Ashby The National Archives National Archives .and Records Service General Services Administration Washington: 1967 National Archives Publication No. 67-5 Library of Congress Catalog Card No. A67-7213 FOREWORD GSA through the National Archives and Records Service is responsible for administering the permanent noncurrent records of the Federal Government. These archival hold­ ings, now amounting to about 900,000 cubic feet, date from the days of the Continental Congresses; they include the basic records of the three branches of our Government-­ Congress, the courts, and the executive departments and independent agencies. The Presidential Libraries.. - Hoover, Roosevelt, Truman, and Eisenhower--contain the papers of those Presidents and many of their associates in office. Among our holdings are many hallowed documents relating to great events of our Nation's history, preserved and ven­ erated as symbols to stimulate a worthy patriotism in all of us. But most of the records are l~ss dramatic, kept because of their continuing practical utility for the ordinary proc­ esses of government, for the protection of private rights, and for the research use of students and scholars. To facilitatethe use of the records and to describetheir nature and content, our archivists prepare various kinds of finding aids. The present work is one suchpublication. We believe that it will prove valuable to anyone who wishes to use the records it describes. LAWSON B. KNOTT, JR. Administrator of General Services iii PREFACE The first step in the records-description program of the National Archives is the compilation of preliminary invento­ ries of the material in some 380 record groups to which the holdings of the National Archives are allocated.
