Description

Glacier National Park: The First 100 Years is a beautiful new book celebrating the park’s 100th anniversary.

Published in partnership with the Glacier Natural History Association and an official licensed product of the park’s centennial, Glacier National Park: The First 100 Years features more than 200 exquisite landscape and historical photographs, in addition to probably the most finest artwork of the region and its other people, including Charles M. Russell’s sun-splashed paintings of Montana scenes, Winold Reiss’s ordinary portraits of the Blackfeet, Monte Dolack’s vivid Glacier views, and Mel Ruder’s Pulitzer Prize winning photographs.

C. W. Guthrie, writer of four other books on Glacier National Park, details the astonishing changes the park has undergone since its designation in 1910. From the Great Northern Railway’s Swiss-style chalets and lodges to the wonderful Going-to-the-Sun Road, from the park’s tragic first fatal grizzly attacks to its designation as an International Peace Park, Biosphere Reserve, and World Heritage Website, Glacier National Park has a story unlike some other.
