John Muir was an influential Scottish-American naturalist, environmental philosopher, glaciologist and early advocate for the preservation of wilderness in the United States. His letters, essays and books concern his adventures in nature, especially in the Sierra Nevada, California; Muir's activism has helped to preserve the Yosemite Valley, Sequoia National Park and many other wilderness areas. This comprehensive eBook presents Muir's complete works, with numerous illustrations, rare texts appearing in digital print for the first time, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.
