About the Author:
The author has spent thirty years researching the over 4,000 place names of Yellowstone National Park. Although this book was written on his own time, he is a professional historian, who serves as Park Historian for the National Park Service at Yellowstone National Park. This book, originally published in 1988, represents a revised and expanded version (2006). Whittlesey has a master's degree in history from Montana State University, a law (J.D.) degree from the University of Oklahoma, and a Ph.D. (Honorary) from Idaho State University.
Review:
Lee Whittlesey is "the premier authority and it's the best book ever written on the subject, a standard reference work of essential worth to both scholars and visitors, and all that sort of thing. I'm really pleased to see the new edition is almost out." Paul Schullery author of 36 books on the American West and adjunct professor of history at Montana State University, Bozeman, Montana. Schullery is also a Technical Editor for the National Park Service at Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming-Montana-Idaho. --Paul Schullery, (406) 585-5337
