Böcker av Scott Herring

Historian and Yellowstone researcher Scott Herring uses his long-running and eccentric knowledge of the park to describe Yellowstone oddities that rarely or never make it into books, such as hidden graves in the backcountry, archaeological discoveries that defy known history, weird hauntings that can't be explained, and very strange qualities of the geysers that only a few people know. These surprising, outlandish, and sometimes eerie facts about Yellowstone cover both natural history and human history, and they are carefully researched, including interviews with park insiders. From bad behaving bears to bizarre landscapes, this book shows visitors hidden mysteries and strange surprises that lie behind the park's famous scenery.

The verb "declutter" has not yet made it into the Oxford English Dictionary, but its ever-increasing usage suggests that it's only a matter of time. The author finds that both the idea of organization and the role of the clutterologist are deeply ingrained in our culture, and that there is a fine line between clutter and deviance in America.

Here, Scott Herring studies work on American National Parks from a wide spectrum of creative minds, from early figures such as Muir and Thomas Moran to later observers of the parks such as Ansel Adams, Sylvia Plath, Edward Abbey, and Rick Bass.

Asking us to look beyond the cities on the coasts, this title draws a different map, tracking how rural queers have responded to this myopic mindset. Interweaving a wide range of disciplines - art, media, literature, performance, and fashion studies - it develops a critique of how metronormativity saturates LGBTQ politics, artwork, and criticism.

Tales of "how the other half lives" experienced a surge in popularity. People looking to go slumming without leaving home turned to these narratives for revelations of underworld and sordid details about the deviants who populated it. This book explores how a group of authors manipulated this genre to evade the confines of sexual identification.
