The Road to Paradise: A Vintage National Parks Novel

The Road to Paradise: A Vintage National Parks Novel

An ideal sanctuary and a dream come trueâ€“thatâ€™s what Margaret Lane feels as she takes in Godâ€™s gorgeous handiwork in Mount Rainier National Park. Itâ€™s 1927 and the National Park Service is in its youth when Margie, an avid naturalist, lands a coveted position alongside the park rangers living and working in the unrivaled splendor of Mount Rainierâ€™s long shadow.
Â
But Chief Ranger Ford Brayden is still haunted by his fatherâ€™s death on the mountain, and the ranger takes his work managing the park and its crowd of visitors seriously. The job of watching over an idealistic senatorâ€™s daughter with few practical survival skills seems a waste of resources.
Â
When Margieâ€™s former fiancÃ© sets his mind on developing the Paradise Inn and its surroundings into a tourist playground, the plans might put more than the parkâ€™s pristine beauty in danger. What will Margie and Ford sacrifice to preserve the splendor and simplicity of the wilderness they both love?
Â
Karen Barnettâ€™s vintage national parks novels bring to vivid life President Theodore Rooseveltâ€™s vision for protected lands, when he wrote in Outdoor Pastimes of an American Hunter: "There can be nothing in the world more beautiful than the Yosemite, the groves of the giant sequoias and redwoods, the Canyon of the Colorado, the Canyon of the Yellowstone, the Three Tetons; and our people should see to it that they are preserved for their children and their children's children forever, with their majestic beauty all unmarred."
