 p>It has been called Wonderland\, America&rsquo\;s Serengeti\, the crown j
 ewel of the National Park System\, and America&rsquo\;s best idea. But how
  did this faraway landscape evolve into one of the most recognizable place
 s in the world? As the birthplace of the national park system\, Yellowston
 e witnessed the first-ever attempt to protect wildlife\, to restore endang
 ered species\, and to develop a new industry centered on nature tourism.</
 p>\n<p>Yellowstone remains a national icon\, one of the few entities capab
 le of bridging ideological divides in the United States. Yet the park&rsqu
 o\;s history is also filled with episodes of conflict and exclusion\, sett
 ing precedents for Native American land dispossession\, land rights disput
 es\, and prolonged tensions between commercialism and environmental conser
 vation. Yellowstone&rsquo\;s legacies are both celebratory and problematic
 . A Place Called Yellowstone tells the comprehensive story of Yellowstone 
 National Park as the story of the nation itself.</p>\n<p><strong>Series Fr
