The story of my boyhood and youth

Muir, John, 1838-19142018
Books, Manuscripts
The great conservationist presents three essays on his formative life: the first 11 years in Scotland, a decade in the central Wisconsin wilderness, and four years at the University of Wisconsin. A classic account of immigration and the harsh conditions of prairie life, these memoirs recapture the extraordinary curiosity, intelligence, and stamina that helped transform Muir into one of America's most important and influential naturalists.
