Found Photos of Yellowstone showcases more than 200 photographs made by park visitors and employees from 1880 to 1940. These candid snapshots reveal hidden moments in the park's history, including never-before-seen views of lodging, transportation, recreation, wildlife, and summer jobs. The photos were "found" by long-time Yellowstone photographer Michael Francis, who has collected more than 11,000 historic Yellowstone images. Each photo in this book was curated by noted Yellowstone historian Lee Whittlesey, who co-wrote the captions with award-winning writer Amy Grisak. These images will surprise and delight anyone who loves Yellowstone. They demonstrate how much Yellowstone has changed--and yet remains the same Wonderland as that witnessed by visitors and employees more than a century ago.

El Parque Nacional de Yellowstone es uno de los lugares mas conocidos en el mundo. Fundado en 1872 como el primer parque nacional en el mundo, ha logrado preservar maravillas como el geiser Old Faithful e iconos culturales como el hotel Old Faithful Inn. Durante varios siglos fue el hogar de los shoshones, crow, bannock, pies negros y otras tribus indias. Sin embargo, estos grupos fueron desterrados durante la decada de 1870 por los propietarios del parque, que temian que no hubiera afluencia de turistas debido a los indios americanos que vivian alli. Casi inmediatamente despues de su fundacion, Yellowstone se convirtio enel destino principal para viajes turisticos al oeste de los Estados Unidos tras la Guerra de Secesion. En 1900 era todo un exito turistico, y actualmente ha sido declarado una reserva de la biosfera y patrimonio de la humanidad.

Over thirty years after its original publication, former Yellowstone National Park archivist Paul Schullery's collection of travelers' accounts of their visits to the first national park still resonates with the tremendous impact the Park has had--and continues to have--as a wilderness and recreation destination. From John Muir's exultation of the beauty of 'Wonderland&' to Rudyard Kipling's hilarious invective of the American tourist, Old Yellowstone Days includes selections which form the best picture of what Yellowstone must have been like before the intrusion of the automobile. Updated with a new introduction by Schullery, new illustrations, and a new foreword by Yellowstone National Park Historian Lee Whittlesey, this volume, which takes its title from an article by Owen Wister, also includes the impressions of William O. Owen, Charles Dudley Warner, Theodore Roosevelt, John Burroughs, Mrs. George Cowan, George Anderson, Emerson Hough, and Frederic Remington.

In the early years of Yellowstone National Park, many companies offered buggy and stage rides through the park, their drivers telling stories to the passengers. Some had no basis in fact, especially those attributed to ""Indian legends,"" but others came from the early trappers and fur traders and were informational as well as entertaining.Lee H. Whittlesey, former Yellowstone National Park historian, devoted years of research to these pre-1920 stories told by the Park's ""tour guides,"" or interpreters. He includes the campfire stories of the traders and trappers, Yellowstone as it was portrayed in early photos and movies, the first Yellowstone guidebooks, and the ""fool tenderfoot questions"" posed by late nineteenth-century tourists. Whittlesey devotes chapters to the first two National Park interpreters, Philetus ""Windy"" Norris and G. L. Henderson. Each had his own delivery style and each awed his respective tour groups. Finally, there are the stagecoach drivers who chauffeured the public over Yellowstone's dirt roads and regaled their passengers with tales of the great Geyserland.Today, National Park Service, private, and concessioner tour guides have taken over the duties of these early guides, sharing Yellowstone National Park's many stories.All author proceeds from this book are being donated to the National Park Service.
Ho! For Wonderland

Ho! For Wonderland

Since it became the world's first national park in 1872, Yellowstone has welcomed tourists from all corners of the globe who returned to their hometowns and countries with reports of this American wonderland. Stories from the park's earliest visitors began to spread so rapidly that by 1897 Yellowstone became solidly established as a successful tourist destination with more than ten thousand tourists passing through its entrances. Travelers in the park's first years faced long, dusty, and tediously slow stagecoach trips and could choose only between rather primitive hotels and tent camps for their overnight accommodations. Devoured by nineteenth-century readers, many of the narratives from this era are long forgotten today and are only gradually being recovered from historical archives. Park historians Lee Whittlesey and Elizabeth Watry have combed thousands of firsthand accounts, selecting nineteen tales that offer unique and engaging perspectives of visitors during Yellowstone's stagecoach era. From an 1873 newspaper serial that represents one of the earliest park's recorded trips to the 1914 ""Little Journey"" that popular writer Elbert Hubbard took with his wife Alice, the chronicles included here reveal the enduring captivation that Yellowstone held in the popular imagination, as it does today.
