"Marlin Stum, journalist and nature writer, grew up east of Antelope Island. He has spent much of his life exploring it and Great Salt Lake, in the field and through library research, and he currently is a state park volunteer on the island. Stum reviews Antelope's story in detail, from the dramatic impact of natural cycles of fire and flood to the island's emblematic, free-roaming buffalo herd. He covers geology and wildlife, archaeology and history, recreation and park management, and other topics, and he invariably considers Antelope Island in relation to the environment and history of Great Salt Lake and the Salt Lake Valley, from which its story should not be separated."--Jacket.

"In 1824 James Bridger, fur trader and guide, discovered the Great Salt Lake ... Between 1846 and 1848, the hegira of Mormons from Illinois made the basin of Salt Lake the focus of a new emigration movement, and public interest in the Utah country increased. In 1849, Captain Howard Stansbury of the Corps of Topographical Engineers, United States Army, was ordered to begin a systematic survey of the region. With a party of eighteen men, he began the work of mapping the area, a task which he did not complete until 1850. The results of that survey were embodied in a report published in 1852 as Senate Executive Document 3, 32nd Congress, Special Session of the Senate. Republished in London ... (1852)"--Foreword.
