http://www.pbs.org/nationalparks George Melendez Wright was the first person in history to propose and conduct a survey of wildlife and plantlife conditions in America's parks, resulting in landmark reports that led to the protection of natural species throughout the park system. This clip from Ken Burns's newest film, THE NATIONAL PARKS: AMERICA'S BEST IDEA, premiering Sunday-Friday, September 27-October 2, 2009, at 8 p.m. ET/PT, introduces Wright and shares his vision for the national parks.

Thank God for PBS and Ken Burns. I can't wait to see this TV series. I wish I could go see all the parks and how nice they are to see and smell in person. I wonder what they are working on for the next TV series.
