Starved Rock State Park: The Work of the CCC Along the I&m CanalVisitors to Starved Rock State Park are often struck by the grandeur of its rustic lodge. They marvel at its massive fireplace and hand hewn logs. Yet few realize that this structure is a tangible reminder of the Civilian Conservation Corps, which in the 1930s provided work for young men left unemployed by the Great Depression.

Visitors to Starved Rock State Park are often struck by the grandeur of its rustic lodge. They marvel at its massive fireplace and hand-hewn logs. Yet few realize that this structure is a tangible reminder of the Civilian Conservation Corps, which in the 1930s provided work for young men left unemployed by the Great Depression. Starved Rock Lodge was one of the biggest projects of the "CCC boys" along the Illinois and Michigan Canal, but it was far from the only one. Working as a team and living in camps from Willow Springs to La Salle-Peru, they built facilities that transformed the old canal into what became the I&M Canal State Trail (1974) and the nation's first National Heritage Corridor (1984). President Franklin D. Roosevelt's nation-wide program preserved the landscape from the ravages of soil erosion, flooding, and deforestation. In the process, the young men built beautiful parks, buildings, and shelters that we use and admire today.Binding Type: Paperback

Beware of Size
Size: XX-Large, Color: White
Inconsistency in size per other reviews. The site said XL was my suggested size.....I usually follow that advice. I went XXL this time and happy I did. The neck is a medium and the rest is maybe XL....it feels "fitted" too...not very loose. I will keep it as I like a snug neck---but this needs effort to pull over my head. Having said that, the material is soft and not too thick. Just beware of sizes.

Not black and Runs small
Size: X-Large, Color: Black
I ordered black but it was more like charcoal gray. I ordered a XL and it fit like a Large at best. The fabric was very soft, so that was a positive. Very disappointed in the color and sizing. I reordered a 2XL and it also runs very small. It fit about the same as the XL did. It is a athletic fit. There is barely any size difference between an XL and a 2XL. Highly recommend to not waste your money on this shirt.
