Description: Journey along America's longest undammed river in the lower 48, from its wild headwaters in the remote Absaroka wilderness to the sweeping plains beyond. This sweeping account traces the Yellowstone's fiery geological origins, the Indigenous nations who called it the Elk River, and the trappers and soldiers who followed in their wake. Along the way, readers explore the ecology of a living waterway, the world's first national park through which it flows, and the modern challenges of floods, spills, and a changing climate. A rich portrait of a river that remains, remarkably, still free.
