John Muir is best known for his work in preserving the great
natural areas of America. What is not commonly known is that he was
also a great contemplative thinker - a sort of "wilderness mystic"
- one who experienced union with the Divine through contact with
the great natural areas of the Western United States. Muir's
preservation efforts were motivated in large part by his experience
of the spiritual dimension of Nature. It was Muir's earthy
mysticism that motivated him to work so diligently for the
preservation of wild places, which he viewed as "God's First
Temples." This book is a sort of "bible" of Muir quotations related
to a vibrant and ecstatic spirituality of Nature. It includes a new
selection of never-before published selections from original
journals contained in the John Muir Papers, as well as passages
from his published works. Anyone interested in experiencing a
deeper communion with Nature will find this book invaluable.
