My First Summer in the Sierra is the incredible true story of John
Muir's iconic time spent working in the California mountain range
of the Sierra Nevada's. In this republished edition, read about his
experience that shaped so much of environmental stewardship today.
In the summer of 1869, a young John Muir joined a crew of shepherds
working in the foothills of California's Sierra Nevada mountains.
Spending countless hours working with the group, Muir also worked
tirelessly to advocate for the land's protection. His efforts
eventually transpired into the founding of Yosemite Valley as a
national park, a landmark event in the history of United States
environmentalism. A glimpse into Muir's private journals, My First
Summer in the Sierra is the remarkable retelling of his time there.
Full of humorous anecdotes and insightful prose, John Muir personal
narrative will likely inspire you to pack up your belongings and
head for the mountains.
