John Muir To Yosemite And Beyond

John Muir To Yosemite And Beyond

Editorial Reviews
--WISCONSON ACADEMY REVIEW
"One cannot overemphasize these Yosemite years. The book's contribution is not so much the unfolding of Muir the geologist, botanist, poet, theologian, ecologist, and humanitarian, but the highlighting of the emerging land ethic of our country's most important conservationist."

Richard F. Fleck, Community College of Denver
"The book. . . is a must for all readers interested in the life and times of John Muir."( --Richard F. Fleck, Community College of Denver)
