Description
I am hopelessly and forever a mountaineer, John
Muir wrote. Civilization and fever and all
the morbidness that has been hooted at me has not
dimmed my glacial eye, and I care to live only to
entice people to look at Nature's loveliness. My
own special self is nothing.In Donald Worster's
magisterial biography, John Muir's special self
is fully explored as is his extraordinary
ability, then and now, to get others to see the
sacred beauty of the natural world. A Passion for
Nature is the most complete account of the great
conservationist and founder of the Sierra Club
ever written. It is the first to be based
on Muir's full private correspondence and to meet
modern scholarly standards. Yet it is also full
of rich detail and personal anecdote, uncovering
the complex inner life behind the legend of the
solitary mountain man. It traces Muir from his
boyhood in Scotland and frontier Wisconsin to his
adult life in California right after the Civil
War up to his death on the eve of World War I. It
explores his marriage and family life,
his relationship with his abusive father, his
many friendships with the humble and famous
(including Theodore Roosevelt and Ralph Waldo
Emerson), and his role in founding the modern
American conservation movement. Inspired by
Muir's passion for the wilderness, Americans
created a long and stunning list of national
parks and wilderness areas, Yosemite most
prominent among them. Yet the book also describes
a Muir who was a successful fruit-grower, a
talented scientist and world-traveler, a doting
father and husband, a self-made man of wealth and
political influence. A man for whom mountaineering
was a pathway to revelation and worship.For
anyone wishing to more fully understand America's
first great environmentalist, and the enormous
influence he still exerts today, Donald
Worster's biography offers a wealth of insight
into the passionate nature of a man whose passion
for nature remains unsurpassed.
