Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Louisiana Conservationist, Vol. 12: May-June, 1960

In recent years, we in Louisiana have been pushing land acquisition programs. So have our sister states. However, we are all faced with a common problem and that is impressing upon the public that the Opportunities for acquiring these lands are slowly, but surely, vanishing for as the days drag on the years fly by on hidden wheels. One may ask - Why all this intensified pressure to acquire more lands for recreation? Sociologists, psychologists and population experts explain this in many ways: The need to escape the pressure of our urbanized society, the results of our increased mobility, the legacy of our American pioneer spirit, heightened interest in wildlife through education, a shorter work week, more leisure time, more money fluctuating and above all - more people.
