American zoos flourished during the Great Depression, thanks to federal programs that enabled local governments to build new zoological parks, complete finished ones, and remodel outdated facilities. This historical text examines community leaders' successful advocacy for zoo construction in the context of poverty and widespread suffering, arguing that they provided employment, stimulated tourism, and democratized leisure. Of particular interest is the rise of the zoo professional, which paved the way for science and conservation agendas. The text explores the New Deal's profound impact on zoos and animal welfare and the legacy of its programs in zoos today.

In the first case study of its kind, Tweton explores the New Deal in one Minnesota county: how programs operated, what impact they had on communities and people, and how people responded. The story he tells is based on oral history interviews, township and village records, files of government papers, and county newspapers.
