The varied images are printed on sturdy white card stock, and their backs are divided with plenty of room for messages to friends or family members and mailing addresses. The book can be used to stay in touch, to share Yosemite's history, or to step back in time for a glimpse of earlier days in the park. Among the subjects of the cards are the Fire Fall, Arch Rock, Yosemite Lodge, the Yosemite Valley Railroad, Overhanging Rock, the Mariposa Grove, and Camp Curry. There also are images of Native American residents, as well as views of waterfalls and major landmarks. This is a nice collection of Yosemite nostalgia with historical authenticity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yosemite National Park is a place of extraordinary natural beauty with renowned waterfalls, spectacular granite rock formations, and serene meadows. Although indigenous peoples already inhabited Yosemite, settlers of European descent found their way there beginning in 1851. To serve the steady growth of tourists and visitors, lodging and accommodations have always been central to the park's history. The popularity of postcards starting in the early 1900s and lasting several decades coincided with the growth of the park's hotels and camps, transportation, and entertainment. This book of vintage postcards illustrates and chronicles those places and events. It provides visitors with an understanding and appreciation for the unique and diverse places made available to tourists throughout Yosemite's history.

Book excerpt: A mere utterance of the word aYosemitea conjures up images of Half Dome, El Capitan, giant sequoias, and the unmatched beauty this northern California park has to offer. However, the area known today as Yosemite has not always been a place of tranquility. Once the home of Ahwahnee tribe, these Native Americans were forced to surrender their home to armed miners rushing for gold and a California government clutching the philosophy of Manifest Destiny.
