Big Sky Rivers
To frame his story, Schneiders goes back to the nineteenth-century journals of fur traders and settlers and in the record of flora, fauna, floods, and human activity he finds evidence of rapid and disruptive change. Bison once had the greatest influence on the land, and Schneiders depicts an original bison and Indian trail networks on which were overlaid the first torts and towns and then the railroads, highways, and reservoirs that reconfigured the region forever.
Downriver
The history of the Yellowstone River and Yellowstone River Valley, blending descriptions of contemporary travel with tales of historical events.
Paradise Valley on the Yellowstone
Paradise Valley, located midway between Gardiner and Livingston, Montana, is aptly named. The area is surrounded by spectacular national parks and forests, follows the curves of the scenic Yellowstone River, and is hemmed with snow-capped mountains. But the stark beauty of the territory belies the often difficult way of life encountered by the area's early inhabitants.
Bringing Sustainability to the Ground Level
With the Yellowstone River Valley of Montana as its setting, this book introduces readers to sustainability issues, theory, and science. Sustainability offers a vision for business and society that benefits Earth. Yet sustainability is often taught in abstract and disconnected ways. This book addresses business profitability, physical environment processes, wildlife, public policies, and American Indian rights. It stresses practical understandings of sustainability via detailed attention to the people of the valley. The case sets the stage for data gathering, analyses, and decision making. Readers will recognize similar concerns in other watersheds and understand sustainability anew.
