My First Summer in the Sierra Audiobook by John Muir, Audiobooks Youtube Free
The journal of naturelover John Muir who spent the summer of 1869 walking Californias Sierra Nevada range. From French Bar to Mono Lake and the Yosemite Valley, Muir was awestruck by everything he saw. The antics of the smallest insect people amazed him as much as stunted thousandyear old Juniper trees growing with inconceivable tenacity from tiny cracks in the stone. Muir spent the rest of his life working to preserve the high Sierra, believing that the clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness. John Muir (18381914) was born in Dunbar, Scotland and grew up in Wisconsin, USA. This recording commemorates the 140th anniversary of that first summer.
