Description

Yosemite National Park, in central California, traces its origins to 1864. Formally established in 1890 and 1906, it preserves Yosemite Valley, giant sequoias, forests, and High Sierra wilderness.

Each book in this series tells a compelling story through the eyes of an experienced interpreter whose writing reflects true enthusiasm for the park. Complete with running text and interpretive captions, accompanied by abundant full-color photographs, these books will be welcome in any home library.

From the massiveness of El Capitan to the delicacy of tiny seedlings from which giant sequoias grow, this book reveals the forces that create such beauty and diversity. Explore the marvelously detailed world of Yosemite National Park.
