The Stories of Yellowstone: Adventure Tales from the World's

The Stories of Yellowstone: Adventure Tales from the World's First National Park

Â Covering the time period from 1807, when John Colter first discovered the wonders of the Yellowstone Plateau to the 1920s when tourists sped between luxury hotels in their automobiles, these tales of Wonderland come from the letters, journals, and diaries kept by early visitors and later tourists. The earliest stories recount mountain menâ€™s awe at geysers hurling boiling water hundreds of feet into the air and their encounters with the native inhabitants of the region. The latest stories reflect the â€œcivilizingâ€ of the park and reveal the golden age of tourist travel in the area.
