A portrait of General Henry Dana Washburn anchors this book page, which is tied to the Yellowstone Wonderland theme. Washburn led the 1870 expedition into the Yellowstone country, and his party, including Nathaniel Langford and Lieutenant Gustavus Doane, returned with vivid accounts of geysers, canyons, and hot springs. Those reports helped spark public interest in the region, and Congress set the area aside as the first national park in 1872. The page is a useful reminder of how printed narratives and portraits of the men who explored the land helped turn a remote wilderness into a national symbol.
