In September 1870, Truman Everts was separated from one of the first exploratory parties in what is now Yellowstone National Park. With little food, equipment, or cold-weather clothing Everts spent more than a month wandering the wilderness before two mountaineers found him alive: frostbitten, scalded, and delirious. Nobody else has been lost so long in Yellowstone and survived. This is one of the West`s most fantastic dramas, high adventure in every sense of the word. Lost in the Yellowstone contains Truman Everts`s original high-adventure chronicle of hardship and survival, newly augmented with biographical and background information.
