"As more and more of us grow aghast at what we have done to the world we started with, Muir's reverence and devotion will seem keenly germane, and our regret may be transmuted into a fight for the future." -Edward Hoagland

Synopsis
John Muir, a young Scottish immigrant, had not yet become a famed conservationist when he first trekked into the foothills of the Sierra Nevada, not long after the Civil War. He was so captivated by what he saw that he decided to devote his life to the glorification and preservation of this magnificent wilderness. My First Summer in the Sierra , whose heart is the diary Muir kept while tending sheep in Yosemite country, enticed thousands of Americans to visit this magical place, and resounds with Muir's regard for the "divine, enduring, unwasteable wealth" of the natural world. A classic of environmental literature, My First Summer in the Sierra continues to inspire readers to seek out such places for themselves and make them their own.

    Absolutely terrific customer service. I saw this grouping, immediately used buy it now function, however I had forgotten to update my address. Realizing this I emailed Retro and furnished my correct address. I found I couldn't do that nor could I cancel the order for it had been shipped, Retro cancelled order for he had not shipped it yet. I repurchased and it arrived 2/3 securely packed and in excellent condition. Went up and beyond, 10 stars. Thank you! Highly recommend!
