The chilling tome that launched an entire genre of books about the frequently gruesome but all the time tragic ways people have died in our national parks, this up to date edition of the classic includes calamities in Yellowstone from the past sixteen years, including the infamous grizzly bear attacks in the summertime of 2011 in addition to a fatal hot springs coincidence in 2000. In these accounts, written with sensitivity as cautionary tales about what to do and what to not do in one in all our wildest national parks, Whittlesey recounts deaths ranging from tragedy to folly—from being caught in a freak avalanche to the goring of a photographer who just got a little too with reference to a bison. Armchair travelers and park visitors alike will likely be fascinated by this important book detailing the dangers awaiting in our first national park.
