Saving Yellowstone: A Conversation with Megan Kate Nelson

Pulitzer Prize finalist and Civil War historian Megan Kate Nelson tells the vivid story of how, 150 years ago, Yellowstone became the world’s first national park amid the nationwide turmoil and racial violence of the Reconstruction era. A narrative of adventure and exploration, the creation of Yellowstone is also a story of Indigenous resistance and the struggles of Black southerners during a turning point in the nation’s history.
