Yellowstone National Park: The First 150 Years

Published in anticipation of the 150th anniversary of the  establishment of Yellowstone National Park in 2022, this book collects  historic photographs, classic art, and an accompanying narrative that  traces the history of the area from its Native American inhabitants to  the present. Sidebars will include profiles of the artists such as  Thomas Moran who made the park famous, how the “subculture” of park  employees has evolved over the years, the role of wildlife biologists in  range management, as well as the ebb and flow of its large mammal  populations as an increased human presence has put pressure on the  Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. Notwithstanding these challenges, the  book will be a celebration of the resilience of the place earlier  visitors aptly called Wonderland.
