Biography: historical, political & military
Wayne Aspinall and the Shaping of the American West
by Steven C Schulte
Description
Steven C Schulte details a political career that encompassed some of the most crucial years in the development of the twentieth-century West.
As chairman of the House Interior and Insular Affairs Committee from 1959 to 1973, Aspinall shaped the nation's reclamation, land, wilderness, and natural resource policies. His crusty and determined personality was at the centre of some of the key environmental battles of the twentieth century, including the Echo Park Dam fight, the struggle for the Wilderness Act, and the long controversy over the Central Arizona Project.
