Fish Culture in Yellowstone National Park: The Early Years: 1900-1930 by Dr. Frank Tainter

This fascinating historical account, Fish Culture in Yellowstone National Park: The Early Years: 1900-1930, offers a rare glimpse into the early fish culture program in one of America's most iconic national parks. Inspired by personal family history, Dr. Frank Tainter draws upon the experiences of his father, uncles, and grandfather, all of whom worked on fish culture initiatives for the U.S. Bureau of Fisheries in Yellowstone during the 1910s and 1920s.

Although Frank himself did not participate in the fish culture program, he brings this era to life through the invaluable photo snapshots taken by his father, capturing the daily activities and challenges faced by those involved. With the perspective of a retired scientist, Frank meticulously documents the history with detailed references, making this book not only an engaging narrative but also a useful resource for future researchers.

More than just a historical record, this book provides readers with an authentic "on-the-ground" perspective of a significant but lesser-known chapter in Yellowstone's history, blending both educational insight and entertainment.
