Produktinformationen zu „Civilian Conservation Corps in Virginia (ePub)“
In 1933, the United States was struggling to survive the Great Depression. Pres. Franklin D. Roosevelt promised a "e;New Deal"e; to put the nation back to work. The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was launched in Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains, where the first camp, Camp Roosevelt, was built. The CCC was widely acclaimed as the most popular of Roosevelt's programs. In Virginia, CCC workers built Shenandoah National Park, the Blue Ridge Parkway, the first six state parks, and more. Despite the program's success, senators from Virginia led the Congressional efforts to kill the CCC in 1942.
