I have Yellowstone Treasures by Janet Chapple laying right in front of me as I'm planning my trip! Got it at Borders. Great guide book, lots of places I had not heard about online.

I followed advice from CeCe and CA; great book, easy reads, mileage is provided between points, both going and coming.

I used Yellowstone Treasures - My husband did the reading while I did the driving. Excellent book to cover all the roads - Set the odometer from site to site so you can tell about when you come to the specific sites. I used it ALOT and found it extremely helpful

Have a great trip.
