Ken Burns on our National Parks…
a big canvas
Documentary film maker Ken Burns has applied his cinematic brush to some daunting canvases; Baseball, Jazz, War.
His latest project is a tribute to our National Parks. As you would expect, this series will be airing soon on PBS. There’s also a lovely companion volume to accompany this series, The National Parks - America’s Best Idea.

I look forward to the PBS show. Count me in as a devotee to our National Park system. In younger days I spent many a good day hiking, camping, boating, and learning in our National Parks. This is truly government money well spent; this coming from a hard-headed conservative.
