Subtitle: a brief sketch in United States history.
Description: "The public lands of the United States represent a panorama of history which defy any brief treatment.

Volume two, "Selected Public Land Documents," contains a selection of the more significant public laws, Congressional committee reports and papers on the public lands over the last 150 years. The two are presented in an effort to acquaint, and reacquaint, the reader with the fascinating and important development of the continental United States."--Foreword.
