then you had a national park around the valley. the next 15 years he and johnson fought to have the valley receded to the federal government to create the national park that we know today ultimately san francisco on the whole second half of the book is the battle which san francisco great earthquake of 1906 in the fire that destroyed san francisco, they wanted part of this national park to create a reservoir. they fought that, they lost the battle. they won the war because from that the national forestry, the national park service was created which would then make that and ultimately save the park. that park would stand up. that is really sort of where the title comes from. they really saved all of the national parks for preservation. >> yeah. he actually married into the family of a fruit rancher. for 10 years ran a very prosperous fruit ranch. his father was a botanist and was creatingg better fruits. his father-in-law built a big mansion he would move into. it was also training him and his wife who was devoted to his wife devoted

- the town voted to condemn the valley floor. - and that was just a huge, huge issue. (intense music) (phone ringing) - the landowner approached sponsors in the colorado legislature for a bill. people referred to it as the telluride amendment. and it purported to say that home rule municipalities or any municipality in colorado would be prohibited from using eminent domain to condemn land for open space, park, recreational purposes. and the very day that it signed into law by the governor, and by the way, it passed the colorado senate by one vote, the landowner files its brief in court asking for the court to dismiss our condemnation petition. and obviously you have to have a great amount of influence if you're going to be able to approach the colorado legislature to approve and put into law a bill that's designed specifically to thwart a condemnation effort that you are on the receiving end of as the landowner. so those are pretty powerful players that are able to put that type of mechanism in place.
