Roadside History of Yellowstone Park (Roadside History Series)
The Roadside History Of Yellowstone Park is a handy reference to the Native Americans who lived or traveled through the Yellowstone country. It also includes the mountain men, the government explorers who mapped the Yellowstone country and then fought to make it a national park. Roadside History Of Yellowstone Park also relates the story of the poachers and other exploiters who threatened the park -- and those that fought against them to preserve this unique wilderness for all the generations to come. The travelers (foreign and domestic, high-born and low-born) who sojourned here are all represented with their travails, thrills, dramas, and serene satisfactions of the people over the park's entire history. Roadside History Of Yellowstone Park allows anyone to begin at which ever of the five park entrances they choose, and then to follow the park's story as they follow the road into and throughout the Yellowstone country.  --Midwest Book Review
