A scientist in Yellowstone National Park: A 50-year adventure

Brock TD. 2017. A scientist in Yellowstone National Park: A 50-year adventure. Thomas D. Brock. Madison, Wisconsin

Although this book might be called a “memoir”, I emphasize that it is not based on memory, but on documents that were created at the time. See “Documentation” for details. It is thus closer to “real” history of science than to a memoir. In the same way, the numerous photographs reproduced here were taken at the time of the events. I have “saved” allof this material. Indeed, in addition to my professional papers now held by the University of Wisconsin-Madison Archives, there is a large room in my home that contains many boxes and filing cabinets storing copies or original records used to write this book.
