Yellowstone autumn

"Although Yellowstone is our oldest, most iconic, and most popular national park, it is perhaps, in W.D. Wetherell's words, "America's least-known best-known place." Wetherell, arriving at the park on the eve of his fifty-fifth birthday, feels the need to examine where life's mileage has brought him. In the encounter that follows, a writer entering late middle age confronts not only a magnificent corner of the vast American landscape but also the American experience itself." "Detailed in the wise, humorous, and lyrical language that has long distinguished W.D. Wetherell's award-winning fiction, this introspective journey merges the fascinating story of Yellowstone's history and geography with the author's own story - of marriage and aging, of fatherhood, and of the solace to be found in the beauty of the natural world. Most of all it's a loving tribute to Yellowstone in autumn, the season when the park and its glories are absolutely at their peak."--Jacket.
