  Nature's New Deal examines the history of one of Roosevelt's most successful experiments, the Civilian Conservation Corps- a turning point in national politics and modern environmentalism. Maher explores the rise of the CCC, and shows how the critique of its campgrounds, hiking trails, and motor roads frames the debate over environmentalism.
