'Yellowstone National Park: Six Early Pieces' Summary
'Yellowstone National Park: Six Early Pieces by Various' assembles six historical accounts about the first national park in the United States. The book opens with a U.S. Geological booklet documenting the initial exploration and the establishment of the park by Congress. Following this are two articles from Scribner's Monthly, a prominent magazine of the era, describing the park's features. The fourth piece is a first-hand narrative by the leader of the exploratory expedition, H.V. Hayden. The fifth piece is a lecture on the park delivered by a popular lecturer and writer in 1900. Finally, the sixth piece is a personal account of a man's harrowing experience of being lost in the Yellowstone wilderness for thirty-seven days in 1871, offering a gripping tale of survival and the stark realities of the untamed landscape. This collection of early accounts provides a fascinating look at the early history of Yellowstone National Park, its awe-inspiring natural beauty, and the challenges faced by those who dared to explore its wild frontiers.Book Details
