Book Signing and Reading with Local Author Natalie Ogbourne


ABOUT THIS EVENT On Saturday, January 25 at 1 pm, Iowa author Natalie Ogbourne will sign books, take readers on a winter's journey into Yellowstone, and talk about Yellowstone with Barnes & Noble guests. About the Author Natalie Ogbourne is the author of "Waking Up in the Wilderness: A Yellowstone Journey." A lifelong Iowan, she is also a former seasonal employee and "long-standing citizen of the Yellowstone Nation." Her parents took her and her little brother to the park when she was twelve to show them there was more to life than malls and movies. Over the following four decades, she has returned thirty-one times and spent nearly a year of her life experiencing the majesty and exploring the mystery of her favorite national park. She's been helping visitors plan their time in the park since 1987 and loves to hear other people's Yellowstone stories as much as she likes sharing her own. Natalie has exactly one athletic bone in her body. It divides its time between hiking and downhill skiing. She and her husband enjoy heading into wildernesses of all kinds together and with their grown kids. About the Book "Waking Up in the Wilderness, A Yellowstone Journey" invites you to embark on a four-decade journey into Yellowstone National Park. Travel with Natalie Ogbourne as she navigates the fine line between isolation and solitude--on the road, on the trail, and in life. Encounter the park's inseperable dangers and delights. Explore Yellowstone through each of its seasons--hiking, canoeing, fly fishing, snowmobiling, and camping along the way. Experience the transformational power of its wilderness. It's said that a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Or the rotation of a tire. Or the turn of a page. Let's go to Yellowstone. Special Instructions This is a live, free event. Copies of the books are limited. Photos and videos will be allowed at the author's discretion.
