geology, yellowstone Dec 28, 2009
Although parts of the book are too technical for an amateur like myself, I very much enjoyed reading about the tortured genesis of Yellowstone Country. I wish I had read it before I visited the park, but it was still fun and very informative. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in rocks and earth history.
Great addition to trip to Yellowstone Jul 04, 2009
There is a lot going on underground in Yellowstone and this book helps to make sense of it all

Another Travel Perspective Jul 04, 2008
We purchased this book while in Wyoming after we came across the Roadside Wyoming book at Devil's Tower. The geology so intrigued us and the kids that finding this book in the National Park Service store made our summer trip even more enjoyable. As you travel through Yellowstone, this book is like a personal guide to the geologic features. It goes beyond the typical travel guide explaining the sites since it is from the geologic perspective. We have purchased other titles in this series after our Wyoming/Yellowstone purchase. Recommended reading as you travel through Yellowstone.

Great Book, Great Professor Oct 14, 2001
This was the text for part of our Field Camp. I was fortunate enough to have the Dr. Fritz as my personal guide to Yellowstone National Park. I still use the book as a reference in my personal studies of U.S. Geology. It is must for anyone traveling to Yellowstone with even the most remote interest in Geology.

 Yellowstone on a simplified Geological Feature a day Sep 11, 2001
The title sums it all up. The book is indeed useful, you can find all sorts of neat features by using it, but it really is a bit simplified. Perhaps it's just me, but it was GREAT for my kids (8 and 11) who are both, well, they read. Anything. As long as they can catch it.
