Hometown HistoryBrown County, Indiana: How T.C. Steele Created an American Art ColonyIn 1907, when renowned portrait painter T.C. Steele and his wife Selma moved to Brown County, Indiana, locals thought they were insane. Brown County was considered "the ends of the earth"—a punchline in a nationally syndicated cartoon featuring the backwards character Abe Martin. With its clear-cut hills, terrible farmland, and families living in 1840s-era log cabins, the county represented everything Indiana had left behind. No water infrastructure, no electricity, no grocery stores. Just subsistence farmers scratching out survival from unwanted land rejected by surrounding counties.But T.C. Steele, at age 60, saw something no one else co...

Over nine years, the CCC employed more than 3 million young men who planted over 3 billion trees, built 800 state and national parks, constructed thousands of miles of trails and roads, and created infrastructure that Americans still use today. This forgotten chapter of American environmental history reveals how economic crisis sparked one of the nation's greatest conservation achievements—and why modern park advocates argue it's time to revive Roosevelt's vision....

Hometown HistoryDeath Valley, California: The Hottest Park and Scenic NationalismIn 1820, British writer Sydney Smith mocked the United States for its lack of cultural sophistication, famously asking, "In the four quarters of the globe, who reads an American book?" This taunt, along with similar criticisms from European intellectuals, helped spark a uniquely American response: scenic nationalism. Unable to compete with Europe's ancient castles and cathedrals, Americans realized they possessed something equally impressive—spectacular natural landscapes that predated any human construction by millions of years. Death Valley, which would become a national monument in 1933 and a national park in 1994, exemplifies this shift in American identity. At 1.7 billion years old, the va...

What followed was one of America's earliest and most successful environmental conservation movements: a fifty-year fight to save the last of these ancient giants.This episode tells the story of how a small group of scientists, philanthropists, and determined activists created the Save the Redwoods League in 1918, launching a campaign that would ultimately preserve tens of thousands of acres of primeval forest. Through strategic land purc...

Hometown HistoryYellowstone National Park: How Art and Artists Created America's First National ParkIn March 1872, President Ulysses S. Grant signed the Yellowstone National Park Protection Act into law, establishing the world's first national park. But Yellowstone's creation wasn't simply a political decision—it was the result of a deliberate artistic campaign. Long before most Americans knew about Yellowstone's geysers, hot springs, and dramatic landscapes, three artists began documenting its wonders: photographer William Henry Jackson, painter Thomas Moran, and watercolorist Henry Wood Elliott. Their photographs, paintings, and sketches captured Congress's imagination and convinced legislators to set aside 3,472 square miles—larger than Rhode Island and Delaware combined—as "a public park or pleasuring-ground for the be...

Hometown HistoryYosemite National Park: America's First Protected Wilderness and Conservation LegacyIn 1864, three years into the Civil War, Abraham Lincoln signed legislation that would change America's relationship with nature forever. The Yosemite Valley Grant Act claimed California's magnificent valley for conservation, establishing a precedent that would lead to the National Park Service and inspire similar movements worldwide. While Yellowstone would become the first official "national park" eight years later, Yosemite holds the distinction of being America's first federally protected wilderness—"in fact if not in name," as the National Park Service notes.This episode explores how America invented the modern concept of the national park—a uniquely democratic idea...
