Book includes Table of Contents, thumbnail gallery and is formatted for all Kindle readers and Tablets .

Thomas Moran was born in England on February 12,1837, but raised in Pennsylvania. He was an artist of the Hudson River School. Thomas Moran's vision of the Western landscape was critical to the creation of Yellowstone National Park. His pencil and watercolor field sketches and paintings captured the grandeur and documented the extraordinary terrain and natural features of the Yellowstone region. Moran's artwork, along with William Henry Jackson’s photographs, were presented to members of Congress by park proponents. These powerful images of Yellowstone fired the imagination and helped inspire Congress to establish the National Park System in 1916. Thomas Moran was so proud of this contribution that he adopted a new signature: T-Y-M, Thomas “Yellowstone” Moran. Mount Moran in the Grand Teton National Park is also named for Moran. He continued to paint many of his great works until his senior years and passed away on August 25, 1926 in Santa Barbara, CA.
