The National Parks : this is America --

Contemporary stories from America's national parks.

The national parks spring from an idea as uniquely American as the Declaration of Independence: that the most e preserved, not for royalty or the rich, but for everyone, for all time. Nearly a decade in the making, this six-part documentary series is a breathtaking journey through the nation's most spectacular landscapes and a celebration of the people who fought to save them for future generations to treasure.
