Abstract:
In 1946, the North Carolina State Park System could only claim two that met park criteria--Morrow Mountain and Hanging Rock. Other parks consisted of the Great Smokey Mountain National Park and some city parks. Pearse compares the state's park system to other states, like South Carolina, which has eighteen, and Tennessee, which has sixteen. Why North Carolina has so few is discussed and there are recommendations for a ten-year plan to develop state parks.
