Great video. I didn't know much about the park til I moved to Akron. I drive to work every chance I get-weather permitting through the park to my job in Brecksville. Sure beats the traffic and construction of the highway system! It's my therapy!
Glad you enjoyed this video. If you get a chance visit our group on Yahoo! We try to give updated info on the progress of the trail and provide info on trail conditions.
There is an 11 minute documentary on the travesty at Cuyahoga. This film, In Condemnation: The Cuyahoga Valley, is the shortest of the three documentaries on what the National Park Service did to the people there. It was released around 1979 while the carnage was still in progress.
A successor to the Jury brothers In Condemnation--The Cuyahoga Valley came in 1983 with a 75-minute documentary entitled For All People, For All Time. Jessica Savitch narrated an hour-long documentary sponsored by PBS for its Frontline program. Entitled For the Good of All,
Savitch continued her advocacy journalistic style by tracing the emotional battles of five families and the Homeowners Association in opposing the NPS.
The deceased Bill Birdsell was portrayed as the classic villain. Savitch asserted that Birdsell wanted a wilderness park where every tree and flower and animal would be protected; that scenic easements were cheaper than fee and would have preserved the community which was clearly what Congress had intended; and that NPS thwarted the will of Congress and ignored the law of the land.
