It would be impossible to write the story of the Park’s administration
without a review of all the _Annual Reports of the Acting
Superintendents, and Superintendents of Yellowstone National Park_. The
Park Library has a complete file from 1872 to the present time. In
addition, the _Reports of the Secretary of the Interior_ and the
_Reports of the Director of National Parks_, covering the same period,
were essential cross references in this effort. A complete set of these
reports is available at the State College of Washington. A perusal of
the soldier (scout) diaries in the Park Library gave the substance for
the discussion of that interesting phase.
Among guide books _The Haynes Guide_ is in a class by itself. It is not
only an invaluable hand book to the casual tourist, but it is an
excellent encyclopedia for research.
The Earl of Dunraven’s _Hunting in the Yellowstone_ affords an excellent
narrative from the standpoint of measuring the progress of all phases of
Park activity.
_Yellowstone Nature Notes_ is the best source for those sprightly
experiences that make life so interesting and pleasant in the Park.
