He must be dull indeed who does not realize what that game refuge has done for a great territory, and of how much actual money value its protection has been to the adjoining States of Montana and Idaho, and especially of Wyoming. The visit of President Roosevelt to the National Park last spring made these conditions plain to the whole nation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
