![]() Death in Yellowstone: Accidents and Foolhardiness in the First National Park Lee H. Whittlesey HISTORY 1995 PAPER 276 PAGES
A how-to-guide to safety in the park -- and an oddly absorbing chronicle of what can go terribly wrong, including death by drowning, hypothermia, animal attacks, fire and car crash. It's a reminder to visitors that Yellowstone is a wilderness, not an amusement park. Tim Cahill (Lost in My Own Backyard) suggests, not entirely in jest, that the book ought to be required reading for anyone entering the park.
