Exploration and enslavement made up the majority of Stephen Bishop’s life. All that we know today about Mammoth Cave is only because of the dedicated work Stephen Bishop did, studying every inch of those caverns. Stephen learned, studied, taught, and shared what he knew with countless others and developed this National Park treasure. End materials include factual tidbits about Stephen Bishop’s life, a glossary, and additional information for further reading and research. 32 pgs, paperback. ~Rebecca
