Description - The Spirit of Yellowstone by Judith L. Meyer
Yellowstone National Park's famous geysers, exotic landscape, and beautiful wildlife partially explain its enormous popularity, but there is something more to the Yellowstone experience - a powerful spirit to the place that is more than the sum of its parts. This history of America's favourite national park shows how that spirit has endured over Yellowstone's 130-year existence. It shows that Yellowstone has consistently evoked awe in different generations of Americans, even as our attitudes toward nature have changed over the years. That awe is also captured in photographer Vance Howard's images which, alongside historic photographs and other early artistic interpretations of the Park's wonders, support the view that Yellowstone's sense of place makes it worth preserving not only for its ecological value but for its lasting importance in American culture.
