 Our National Parks by John MuirA key founder of the modern conservation movement, John Muir was a champion of the preservation of the unspoiled wilderness and of the careful guardianship of the environment. This 1901 work, a collection of essays first published in the Atlantic Monthly, is Muir's valentine to the national parks of the American West. He introduces us to: - the glacier meadows and wild geysers of Yellowstone
- the "magnificent mirror for the woods and mountains and sky" that is Yellowstone Lake
- the coniferous forests of the Sierra Nevada, including the beautiful giant sequoia
- the grizzly bears of the mountain ranges . and much more.
