Description

The Appalachian National Park Association drafted a number of petitions and resolutions favoring the establishment of a national forest reserve and/or a national park in the southern Appalachians. Petitions were circulated among citizens and then presented with resolutions to various state legislators. By 1900, almost 5000 petitions had been signed, and 210,000 pieces of printed matter had been sent out by the association.
