Outdoors enthusiasts, national park advocates and environmentalists Frank and Audrey Peterman have added “author” to their resumes with the publication of “Legacy on the Land: A Black Couple Discovers Our National Inheritance and Tells Why Every American Should Care.”

The book tracks the couple’s odyssey through the National Park System that began in August 1995, and it swings the doors wide for African-Americans who know little of their ancestors’ involvement in the outdoors, including the Buffalo Soldiers’ conservation efforts.

Along the way, they unveil the wonders of nature and the awesome beauty that awaits all Americans in our national parks.

The book is available at www.legacyontheland.com and www.amazon.com.
