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 1540215164\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781540215161\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing Library Editions\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 130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.38d","brand":"Joe Elton","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43938202190079,"sku":"9781540215161","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_7a614a43-3e08-4ff7-8ed1-2588c3a7b103.jpg?v=1681434342","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/civilian-conservation-corps-in-virginia-joe-elton-9781540215161","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
