Description Technical Specs
 
This book is much, much more than a simple accounting of tragedy. It is rich in historical context and develops the setting and background for the deaths chronicled.
Features
  • It provides valuable lessons to be learned and to be re-learned and reinforced. The investigative reports, it puts you into the minds of some of the people involved and even into the minds of the victims. It provides rare insight into the world of Yosemite." —MICHAEL FINLEY Superintendent of Yosemite National Park, 1989-1994
    Two veterans of Sierra Nevada wilderness chronicle the first comprehensive history of fatal misadventures in Yosemite National Park from the time of the 1849 "discovery" of Yosemite Valley up to visitors falling off its giant waterfalls in the 21st century. The accounts of the nearly 900 people who have met untimely deaths in Yosemite offer the most astounding array of adventures, misadventures, history, and life-saving lessons between two covers since Over the Edge: Death in Grand Canyon.
