Amazon.co.uk Review
The name John Muir has come to stand for the protection of wild land and wilderness in both American and Britain. Born in Dunbar in the east of Scotland in 1838, Muir is famed as the father of American conservation. He founded the Sierra Club and was the first person to promote the idea of national parks. In Travels in Alaska he takes a trip through last century's Alaska. He writes the way he took pictures, in clean, easy-going, enthusiastic prose, with insight, attention, care and genuine feeling. It's a lovely look into a beautiful land and its inhabitants, told in a flowing narrative that's far less rushed than contemporary travel tales. --Acton Lane
