About this audiobook
These four excerpts, from the writings of John Muir, document his naturalist studies in a number of different settings. These highly descriptive stories detail his expeditions in the rugged outdoors.

His direct activism helped to save the Yosemite Valley and other wilderness areas.
Four Excerpts are included:
A Geologists Winter Walk
A Perilous Night on Shasta Summit
Nevada's Dead Towns
People and Towns of Puget Sound
