Mount Rushmore Memories

Edited by Jean L.S. Patrick



 

About the book

Back in December 2010, people across the country were asked to submit a memory that showed what Mount Rushmore meant to them.

Approximately 100 people offered their memories.  These people included visitors, employees, local residents, National Park Service employees, politicians, a former Rushmore carver and the grandchildren of Doane Robinson, Charles Buell and Gutzon Borglum.

In November 2011, the book was published.  It's full of personal pictures, historic photos and memories that connect readers to the Mount Rushmore story.

Best, there's a place at the end for YOU to write your own Mount Rushmore memory.
