This anthology features selections from fiction, nonfiction, and government documents of the nineteenth century that chronicle the splendor, the exploitation, and the controversies surrounding this extraordinary and much-loved alpine lake on the California-Nevada border.

He is the editor of Distant Horizon: Documents from the Nineteenth-Century American West (Nebraska, 1999) and Nature’s Mountain Mansion: Wonder, Wrangles, Bloodshed, and Bellyaching from Nineteenth-Century Yosemite (Bison Books, 2022), among other books.
