Description
Summary:In this third edition of Cultural Resource Laws and Practice, Thomas F. King presents clear, practical information for those who need to navigate the labyrinth of cultural resource management (CRM). He discusses the various federal, state and local laws governing the protection of resources, how they have been interpreted, how they operate in practice and even how they are sometimes in contradiction with each other. He provides helpful advice on how to ensure regulatory compliance in dealing with archaeological sites, historic buildings, urban districts, sacred sites and objects, shipwrecks and archives. King also offers careful guidance through the confusing array of federal, state and tribal offices concerned with cultural resource management.
