Presents all aspects of the Yosemite story--geologic origin of the principal
features, Indian history and "discovery" by early explorers plus role in
conservation history as what has been called America's first national park (set
aside in 1864 and before Yellowstone of 1872 but without the term "national
park" in its formal establishment), scenery of the High Sierra, and ecology of
the park's three giant sequoia groves. Revised in several new editions since
