http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/313868142

Subject files relating to the establishment of the Voyageurs National Park in northeastern Minnesota. Kept by Roger S.

Williams, though based in the Planning Agency, worked with an interdepartmental committee established by the governor. Although some materials pre- and post-date Williams' time as coordinator, they all relate to the national park.
