Yosemite in Time: Ice Ages, Tree Clocks, Ghost Rivers

These photographs and essays reconsider the iconic status of Yosemite in America's conception of wilderness, examining how the place was appropriated by its early Euro-American visitors and showing how conceptions of landscape have altered and how land has changed--or not--over time.
