Industrial Tourism and the National Parks

Question: What specific details stay in your mind? Why? How do these small details lead to larger ideas?

Answer: Edward Abbey describes the experience of working at a national park. Being in that situation it allowed him to look differently at the situation of the national parks. That detail shows his knowledge and allows the reader to respect his opinions. Then he suggests a way of eliminating cars from the parks. In my opinion, they seem to be very good ideas. Saving money on not making roads and helping the environment is a win-win. It seemed as though the details in the beginning helped back Abbey's ideas. That is why they stayed in my mind.
