Pres. Franklin D. Roosevelt promised a \"New Deal\" to put the nation back to work. The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was launched in Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains, where the first camp, Camp Roosevelt, was built. The CCC was widely acclaimed as the most popular of Roosevelt's programs. In Virginia, CCC workers built Shenandoah National Park, the Blue Ridge Parkway, the first six state parks, and more. Despite the program's success, senators from Virginia led the Congressional efforts to kill the CCC in 1942.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joe Elton, Patty Elton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1467125245\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781467125246\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing (SC)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/06\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.50w x 0.40d","brand":"Joe Elton","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43980447154431,"sku":"9781467125246","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_85f0c723-c15e-4b61-bc06-2f8c3b908c84.jpg?v=1683249951","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/civilian-conservation-corps-in-virginia-joe-elton-9781467125246","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
