YOSEMITE: the story behind the scenery (CA). by William R. Jones, former Chief Naturalist of Yosemite National Park.
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.
Yosemite!
Its cliffs and waterfalls are so high that the first explorers to see them
could not estimate their heights. Its landmark Half Dome is so distinctive

High Sierra wilderness is so remote and vast that few have ever seen it at

The story behind the scenery takes you through this magnificent National
Park in a manner that is unique, interpreting the diversity of its wonders
in a way you'll truly appreciate a tale told around Yosemite campfires: A
lady visitor, who wanted to spend her time in Yosemite to the best
advantage, asked a park ranger, "What would you do if you had only one day
to spend in Yosemite?" "Madam," the ranger replied, " I'd weep.
