Description:
The chilling tome that launched an entire genre of books about the gruesome but always tragic ways people have died in our national parks, this updated edition of a classic includes calamities in Yellowstone from the past 16 years.
Review Quotes: Behind the gripping adventure, drama, and heartbreak of the stories told in this uniquely authoritative book are deep lessons--not only in personal responsibility but in the role of national parks in our society. Lee Whittlesey's compelling study of Yellowstone fatalities wisely reminds us of both the price and the pricelessness of protecting wild nature.--Dr. Paul Schullery, former Ranger, Yellowstone National Park, author of Mountain Time and Searching for Yellowstone
