Description:‘No other writer is so ceaselessly astonished by the natural world as he.’ Robert MacfarlaneThe name of John Muir has come to stand for the protection of wild land and wilderness in both America and Britain.

His journal provides a unique weaving of natural history, lyrical prose and amusing anecdote, retaining a freshness, intensity and honesty which will amaze the modern reader.‘The richness of Muir’s writing roots deeper into the terrain than any other wilderness writer known to me.’ Los Angeles Times‘As more and more of us grow aghast at what we have done to the world we started with, Muir’s reverence and devotion will seem keenly germane, and our regret may be transmuted into a fight for the future.’ Edward HoaglandWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
