Beschreibungen

This antiquarian volume contains John Muir's 1911 travel book, &quote;My First Summer in the Sierra&quote;. After the American Civil War, John Muir assembled a group of shepherds to drive a large flock of sheep to Yosemite National Park. In 1911 he published this account of the experience, which would encourage many people to visit the Yosemite region and become a seminal piece of environmentalist literature. The contents include: &quote;Through the Foothills with a Flock of Sheep&quote;, &quote;In Camp on the North Fork of the Merced&quote;, &quote;A Bread Famine&quote;, &quote;To the High Mountains&quote;, &quote;The Yosemite&quote;, &quote;Mount Hoffman and Lake Tenaya&quote;, &quote;A Strange Experience&quote;, &quote;The Mono Trail&quote;, etcetera. John Muir (1838 - 1914), was a Scottish-American writer, naturalist, and pioneering advocate of American wilderness preservation. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition - complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
