From the moment Jeremy Corbyn was elected Labour leader, Corbynism
has been dismissed, derided or romanticised, but rarely taken
seriously as a set of ideas on its own terms. This book critically
outlines the shared understanding of capitalism and its
alternatives that unites the component parts of the Corbyn
movement. It decodes the central tenets of the Corbynist worldview,
showing their coherence with contemporary political-economic shifts
and conspiratorial understandings of global capitalism as a 'rigged
system' common to populist nativism in an age of Trump and Brexit.
Demystifying weather, wildlife populations, hundreds of square
miles of backcountry, and park accommodations that are often sold
out a year in advance, "The Concise Visitor's Guide to Yellowstone"
by author and national park enthusiast Matt Bolton is the smartest
tool to ensure your trip to America's first national park is
unforgettable. This guide, the second in a series, follows Bolton's
Amazon Category Best Seller, "The Concise Visitor's Guide to
Yosemite." Sized to fit your backpack and your budget, your
adventure begins here. In seventeen engaged and informative
chapters like "Hiking Options" and "Wildlife in Yellowstone" Bolton
makes a beeline to the basics so readers can really enjoy the
scenic route. He satisfies the vital needs of where to stay and
where to eat, and answers general questions, like how to get to
Yellowstone, for first-time visitors. He offers up-to-date phone
numbers and websites, as well as details on visitor centers,
seasonal events for kids, and camping. Leaving no stone unearthed
he also lists activities for outdoor enthusiasts who don't
particularly like to hike and what to do in case of inclement
weather. Whether you have a single afternoon or an entire month,
Bolton walks readers through how to make the most of their time at
Yellowstone and doesn't just offer what he thinks are the best
trails and tours but goes the extra mile to explain why. With tips
on what to pack, what sort of challenges might come up, and where
to fuel the car, Bolton never misses a beat in making national
parks accessible-and ensures that your time at Yellowstone is
extraordinary.
Whether you are planning a trip to Yosemite National Park or you
are in the car and heading there, Matt Bolton's The Concise
Visitor's Guide to Yosemite is your perfect traveling companion.
Using this book as your guide, you will find the most candid and
up-to-date information about trails and lodging, weather
conditions, where to dine or shop for food, kids' activities, and
park tours. Unlike many guide books that highlight certain areas,
Bolton's book allows you to compare different aspects of the park.
For example, why are some trails better than others? Are there
areas to avoid? In a park that offers seemingly limitless
activities, this book will help you to organize your visit and get
the most out of your time at the park. As a five-time visitor to
Yosemite, and a visitor to what many consider every major national
park in the fifty states, the author is more than qualified to be
your guide.
