Harry and Adelaide Child founded a Yellowstone National Park dynasty that lasted more than sixty years. Harry managed the park’s transportation and hotel companies from 1901 until his death in 1931, when his daughter and son-in-law succeeded him. Adelaide oversaw the furnishing of new hotels, including Old Faithful Inn and the Canyon Hotel. Longtime Old Faithful Inn tour guide and author Ruth Quinn delves into the Childs’ personal lives and their enduring impact on the park, and on Montana.
