This article and map are concerned with national forest reserves and indicate that, at the time, there were no forest reserves east of the Mississippi. The article outlines the importance of the watershed and timber as an industry, but also gives mention to “Scenery as a Commercial Asset.” While the article was not written by the Appalachian National Park Association, it was collected by the association as a part of its records.
