Bookstore at the Mound City Group Visitor Center

 

Eastern National was founded by NPS rangers in 1947 at Gettysburg National Military Park.

The park's cooperating association, Eastern National, manages the bookstore at the Mound City Group Visitor Center. We offer a variety of books, maps, postcards, games, and other educational materials related to the park's cultural and natural resources. We carry some popular, current publications and also some rare, hard-to-find scholarly publications in our bookstore. We also have many items that would be perfect for that special, memorable gift. A portion of the profits is returned to the park to support interpretive and resource management programs.

You can also make purchases online by visiting our online bookstore, managed by Eastern National, by clicking here.

Stained Glass Art

In the summer of 2008, William Huebner, the park's Eastern National Bookstore Manager, began designing his own creative interpretations of the five earthwork sites protected by Hopewell Culture National Historical Park. Based on maps drawn in the 1840's by Squier & Davis, William used stained glass to represent the geometric layouts of Mound City Group, Hopewell Mound Group, Seip Earthworks, Hopeton Earthworks and High Banks Earthworks. William has enjoyed working with stained glass for years. While mainly a hobby, he says he will continue to create panels as new inspirations come. Today, these panels can be seen hanging in the widows of the Mound City Group visitor center adding interest, imagination and inspiration to the park.
