Tales of Yosemite
by Jonathan Williams
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Fiction
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
A land of vast
beauty and constant change, Yosemite National Park never ceases to amaze and
inspire its visitors. And fiction writer Jonathan Williams, an avid camper and
fan, is no exception. In four charming short stories, he captures the Park’s
diverse landscape and unique wilderness, using it as backdrop in all its glory
to tell his tales.
“The Condor
Suit” tells the story of Tim whose life-long dreams of flying prompts him to
move to a small town in the foothills of the Sierra to pursue his quest:
building a bird suit and flying into the Park. In “Dog Lake,” a young boy on a
Yosemite camping trip falls into the lake and disappears, only to discover
another world lurking beneath its surface, and the lake magically comes to
life. “The Rescue” tells the story of a hiker, and the unusual relationship he
forms with a bear and her cub in the park. And with “The Old Man in the
Sierra,” visitors in Yosemite National Park encounter a strange man leaving
them wondering if he is the Park’s notorious mystery man? Does he exist, or is
he the stuff of everyone’s imagination, and simply part legend, part ghost?

EXCERPT THREE:
The Rescue:
"Instinctively,
I made as much noise as possible, and blew my whistle but the mountain lion
continued toward me."
