Textbook Information
Charles Little's Greenways for America describes this remarkable citizen-led effort to get Americans out of their cars and into the landscape via greenways.
The term refers to the concept of establishing parkland along a natural corridor--riverfront, stream valley, ridgeland--or along a railroad right-of-way, canal, or scenic road. Described here are many successful examples as well as the planning, politicking, and engineering these projects require. Includes color photos, maps, and an extensive bibliography. Annotation c.
