Before the United States Geographic Board, in the Matter of the Proposal to Change the Name of Mount Rainier. Statement of Charles Tallmadge Conover, (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781171648499)

This document presents a statement by Charles Tallmadge Conover before the United States Geographic Board, advocating for the retention of the name "Mount Rainier." Representing numerous citizens of the State of Washington, Conover argues against a proposed change to the mountain's name. This historical record offers insights into early 20th-century debates surrounding place names, geographical identity, and local sentiment in the Pacific Northwest. It is valuable for researchers interested in the history of Washington State, the United States Geographic Board, and the cultural significance of Mount Rainier.
