Experience the national parks through fresh, diverse perspectives with Campfire Stories Volume II. This vibrant collection of modern prose, poetry, folklore, and personal reflections features commissioned and existing works from a wide range of writers who share a deep love for the outdoors.
Unlike the original Campfire Stories, which captured historical tales from the first 100 years of the National Park Service, Volume II focuses on today's parks, highlighting five iconic parks and two legendary long-distance trails.
Contributors include award-winning and emerging voices from BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities, such as Lauret Savoy, Rae DelBianco, Derick Lugo, Rena Priest, and Terry Tempest Williams — all offering powerful, personal narratives about the natural world and our shared outdoor spaces.
