Perhaps you could add a few links to sites with more information about the
creation of the park & the impact on the inhabitants of the area.

The "Children of Shenandoah" web site has quite a few links to articles
about the park creation & the lingering aftermath.

The park site also has some good information, the Audrey Horning articles &
the articles about Miriam Sizer are especially good.
