To Yellowstone Park and Back: A Journal

By Irene Angus

In the summer of 1929 three young ladies, in a Star automobile, set out on a journey of 4200 miles from northern Michigan to Yellowstone Park. Miss Angus and the Amborski sisters (Lucy, a teacher and Mickey, a nurse) deal with worrisome flat tires, interesting camp sites, hot weather and incredible landscapes.Miss Angus' skill as a science teacher allows her to naturally fill this heavily illustrated journal with information as well as chronicle daily traveling events. She allows us, in her story telling, to share her observations, her reactions, and her feelings. She includes many stories of people they encountered and observed along the way which tells a story of 1929 Americana. If one tallies the number of flat tires, mended tubes, replaced parts, etc., it would give us pause to appreciate the improvements made in automobiles today.Join these three brave, adventurous ladies and enjoy the sights, sounds and feelings of an excursion "To Yellowstone Park and Back".
