 * Engeerining Eden related to NPS
 * Jordan Fisher Smith's Novel, Engineering Eden, follows the story of a fatal bear attack in Yellowstone National Park that sparked a subsequent federal trial. The novel addressed the specific circumstances of the death regarding the legal accountability, as well as explored border themes relevant to The NPS Organic Act. Both Engineering Eden and the Act have strong ties to conservation, restoration, and the management or the natural and cultural resources for future visitors. While Engineering Eden delves into the trial which followed the legal framework established through The NPS Organic Act, the novel also explored the efforts to restore and manage the ecosystems within national parks after the accident which complies with The NPS Organic Act's mandate.
