Description
All listeners who have admired Muir’s ruggedly individualistic lifestyle and those who wish a greater appreciation of the history of environmental preservation in America will be enthralled and enlightened by this Pulitzer Prize-winning biography. Contrary to much popular opinion, Muir was more than a “voice crying in the wilderness.” His was a multifaceted character, shaped as much by his stern and liberty-loving Scottish heritage as by his love of all things wild and free. His battles against the encroachment of civilization were actually born of his love for civilization—for he realized that the destruction of the wilderness would diminish man himself.
