Book excerpt: Excerpt from Yellowstone National Park Yellowstone is the largest and probably the most famous of our national parks. There is no other region like it. In the variety and power of its geysers, in the diversity of its wonders, it has no rival. The Park, second in historical rank, was created by act of Congress, in 1872, for the perpetual enjoyment of the people. Uncle Sam has made it convenient and comfortable for all who wish to come. Yellowstone National Park is situated in northwestern Wyoming and extends slightly into Idaho and Montana. It is about 62 miles long and 54 miles wide, and has an area of square miles. Its general physical character is that of a broad, volcanic plateau with an average elevation of feet, and surrounded by mountain ranges rising from to feet higher.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Yellowstone National Park: Historical and Descriptive Thus it results that this revision of The Yellowstone is full of reminiscence to the author - a fact which is doubt less sufficiently apparent in the following pages. But it has also been a work of painstaking care, and no labor has been spared to make the book an authority upon the sub jcet of which it treats. In the historical section greater care has been taken in the literary form; the repertoire of Bridger stories has been enlarged, and additional facts are presented concerning that interesting pioneer, John Colter. The descriptive section has been extensively altered to conform to the progress of events, particularly in their relation to the administrative work of the Park. As to the subject-matter itself, the author may properly repeat here from the preface of the previous edition that in every important respect the Yellowstone Park has so far fulfilled the expectation of its founders and has justified the wisdom of its creation. Our national parks are grow ing into an institution and the Yellowstone was the pioneer and remains the most important of them all. If ofiicial ambition for innovation and mercenary ambition for private gain are held under adequam restraint, there is no reason why it may not continue to the latest generation a genuine example of original nature - a benefit and an enjoyment, as the Act of Dedication puts it, to the people whose wisdom has preserved it to posterity.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Yellowstone National Park HE Yellowstone is associated in the public mind with geysers only. Thousands even of those who, watches in hand, have hustled from sight to sight _over the usual stage schedules, bring home vivid impressions of little else. There never was a greater mistake. Were there no geysers, the Yellow stone watershed alone, with its glowing canyon, would be worth the national park. Were there also no canyon, the scenic wilderness and its incomparable wealth of wild-animal life would be worth the national park.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wonders of the Yellowstone The following description of the marvellous features and phenomena of the Yellowstone Lake Region in the Rocky Mountains begins close to its northern border, at the frontier military post of Fort Ellis. Here, on the verge of the Yellow Valley, is the starting-point of the several exploring parties who have made known to the world the wonders of this extraordinary territory; and here, doubtless, for many years to come the traveller in quest of the scenes described in these pages will shake hands with the advance guard of civilization before plunging into the wilderness. The discoveries narrated form an event of high public interest in the history of the United States, and have already been the subject of a legislative enactment. In consideration of the importance of the discoveries, and from a conviction that in a few years this region will be a place of resort for visitors from all parts of the world, the Senate and House of Representatives, on March 1, 1872, passed an act withdrawing from settlement, occupancy, or sale, under the laws of the United States, the tract of land described, being in extent 55 by 65 miles, and which territory is dedicated and set apart as a great national park or pleasure ground for the benefit and enjoyment of the people.

These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside John Ermine of the Yellowstone: Look inside the book: Chick-chick, or Chickens, as the miners often called him, had not entered the expedition because of his love for children, or the color of this one in particular; so, at the suggestion of the chairman, it was turned over to a benevolent saloon-keeper, who had nine notches in his gun, and a woman with whom he abided. ...Having fought each other with arrows until it no longer amused them, the foes of an idle hour ran away together down by the creek, where they disrobed by a process neatly described by the white men's drill regulations, which say a thing shall be done in 'one time and two motions.' About Frederic Remington, the Author: It was that same year that the president of the Fairmount Park Art Association (now the Association for Public Art) commissioned Remington to create a large sculpture of a cowboy for Philadelphia's Fairmount Park, which was erected in 1908 on a jutting rock along Kelly Drive - a site Remington specifically chose for the piece after having a horseman pose for him in that exact location. ...Remington was the most successful Western illustrator in the “Golden Age” of illustration at the end of the 19th Century and the beginning of the 20th Century, so much so that the other Western artists such as Charles Russell and Charles Schreyvogel were known during Remington’s life as members of the “School of Remington”.
Download or read book Geological History of the Yellowstone National Park Classic Reprint written by A. Hague and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geological History of the Yellowstone National Park The central portion of the Yellowstone Park is, essentially, a broad, elevated, volcanic plateau, between 7000 and 8500 feet above sea-level, and with an average elevation of about 8000 feet. Sur rounding it on the south, east, north, and northwest, are mountain ranges with culminating peaks and ridges rising from 2000 to 4000 feet above the general level of the enclosed table-land. For present purposes it is needless to confine ourselves strictly to legal boundaries, but rather to consider the entire region in its broader physical features. It is worthy of note, however, that by the proposed enlargement the protected area will agree closely with the geographical province.

These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside Yellowstone Nights: Look inside the book: As he looked at things near and far, from the formal garden of the little park to the towering peak of Electric Mountain, which flew a pennon of cloud off to the west, or Sepulcher Mountain, half lost in an unaccustomed haze to the south, but displaying above the blue its enormous similitude of a grave, with the stone at head and foot, he made notes in his huge pocket-book, and in making notes he approached closer and closer to the big boy and little girl on the bench. ...Possibly it was some subtle effluence from things nearer and more concrete than either, for as he closed the magazine that he might rarefy and prolong this pulsing wave of poetry by excluding the distracting pages from his sight, his vision, resting for an instant upon the ribbon of grass and flowers flowing back beside the train, swept inboard and was arrested by a modish hat, a pile of ruddy hair, a rosy ear, the creamy back and side of a round neck, and the curve of a cheek. ...Now Pa is as hard to approach as any Oriental potentate; but I supposed that Billy was one of the men from the factory, and had business, and I was a little fluttered by the wonderful depth and sweetness of his voice; so I just said: 'This way, please'—and took him in to where Pa was sawing the air and dictating a blood-curdling letter to a firm of contractors in San Francisco, who had placed themselves outside the pale of humanity by failing to get results from our new Polyphase Generator.

Download or read book A Modern Dry Fly Code written by Vincent C. Marinaro and published by . This book was released on 2015-10-16 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Merging a poetic reverence for the art of fly fishing with a wealth of practical information and technical advice, Vincent Marinaro's, A Modern Dry-Fly Code is the classic guide to dry-fly fishing. Originally written in 1950 as the sport was languishing for lack of innovation, this book helped bring about a fly-fishing renaissance on riverbanks across America. An ideal book for readers who share Marinaro's deep reverence for the fisherman's connection to the unspoiled natural world, A Modern Dry-Fly Code will have you yearning for the sound of running brook water, eager to try some of the author's legendary fly patterns, casting techniques, and scouting tips.The product of a lifetime of experience wading in the waters of the Letort, Big Spring, and other south Pennsylvania streams, A Modern Dry-Fly Code significantly changed the way American anglers think about dry-fly fishing. In addition to detailed information on matching hatches, trout behavior and biology, and where and when to cast which types of flies, Marinaro introduces several ideas of his own invention based on the results of his many experimental outings. Among the revolutionary ideas set forth in this book are Marinaro's 'minutiae', miniscule flies designed to imitate the dozens of tiny insects that swarm over the surface of the water as well as his thorax-style technique for crafting superb dry-flies.For beginners and expert fishermen alike, there is much wisdom to be gleaned from Marinaro's inventive and curious inquiry into the nature and practice of fly-fishing.
