Description

Explore the evolution of the American historic preservation movement with this detailed study from Routledge. This book examines how heritage conservation has grown over the last 50 years, placing its development within the broader context of the civil rights and environmental movements. Readers will learn about the first generation of the New Preservation era, spanning from 1966 to 1991. This period saw the creation of the bureaucratic structures that still influence how heritage conservation is practiced in the United States today. The text tracks the massive expansion of official recognition programs, noting how the National Register of Historic Places grew from fewer than one thousand historic properties to more than 50,000 listings. This work provides a deep look into the systems and programs that shape our understanding of the past. It is a valuable resource for those studying museum collections, exhibition catalogs, and the history of American preservation efforts.
