Here are six relatively unknown early pieces about the U.S.A.s first national park. The first is a U.S. Geological booklet about initial exploration and Congresss institution of the park. The next two are articles from Scribners Monthly, 1871, a very popular magazine of the time, describing the parks features (vol 2 #1 pp 1-17 and vol 2 #2 pp 113-128) .
The fourth piece is a narrative by the leader of the exploratory expedition described in the first piece, H.V. Hayden (Scribners Monthly, vol 3#2 pp 388-396, February 1872) The fifth piece is a lecture on the park by a very popular lecturer and writer, 1900 (John L. Stoddards Lectures, vol 10). The last piece is a mans first-person narrative of his being lost in the Yellowstone wilderness for thirty-seven days, 1871, Scribners Monthly again (vol 3#1). - Summary by david wales
