USICOMOS

 The National Park Service has been a major partner in the US/ICOMOS International Intern Exchange Program for many years.  Numerous international preservationists have completed internships through this program on a wide variety of documentation projects with the NPS Historic American Building Survey/Historic American Engineering Record.

America's National Park Roads and Parkways: Drawings from the Historic American Engineering Record is now available from The Johns Hopkins University Press.

This large-format book brings together 331 measured and interpretive drawings commissioned by HAER to illustrate the physical characteristics, design strategies, construction practices, and visitor experiences of roads in national parks from Acadia to Zion and parkways from the Blue Ridge to the Natchez Trace.  Also included are non-Park Service projects that utilized similar design strategies, including the Bronx River Parkway and the Columbia River Highway.
