<DIV><p>Western History</p> <p class="description">The incredible true adventure of the only person known to have survived so long while lost in Yellowstone wilderness.<BR><br> When Truman Evert visited the Yellowstone area in 1870, the Yellowstone belonged to myth. Scattered reports of a mostly unexplored wilderness filled with natural wonders caught the public's—and Evert's—attention. Although fifty-four, nearsighted, and an inexperienced woodsman, he joined the expedition determined to map and investigate the mysterious Yellowstone.<BR><br> Separated from his party, and then abandoned by his horse, Evert embarked on one of the most grueling survival adventures recorded on the American frontier. For thirty-seven days he wandered Yellowstone alone, injured, and without food save that which he could scrape from an unfriendly land.<BR><br> Truman Evert's story manifests the qualities we associate with the great explorers: endurance, determination, inventiveness, and courage in the face of unendurable hardship. <i>Lost in the Yellowstone</i> is an inspiration, and a testament to one man's will to survive.</p></DIV>
