Summary: Excellent Reference Source
Comment: I have acted as a Tour Guide in Yellowstone Park for the last ten years, both summer and winter. I now own my own Custom tour business based out of Jackson, Wyoming, and do tours of Grand Teton and Yellowstone Parks. Lee Whitlesey's book "Yellowstone Place Names" is probably the single best reference source for information on place names and their origins that can be found. Aubrey Hayne's book, by the same title, is much more difficult to use, in that it is not alphabetized, and requires considerable searching to find the information desired. I would highly recommend Whitlesey's book to anyone interested in Yellowstone Nat'l Park, and the history of place names therein.

Summary: A great Yellowstone reference guide!
Comment: Ever wondered how that mountain got its name? Ever wondered why a small geyser has such a magnificent name? Lee has done excellent work here in compiling stories behind many of the features you encounter when in Yellowstone National Park. It is great fun to lear more about the things you have always taken for granted in Yellowstone (Note: This is a shorter version of Wonderland Nomenclature - a guide which contains stories behind almost every Yellowstone name -....)
