About this listen

Part of John Muir's appeal to modern audiences is that he not only explored the American West and wrote about its beauties but also fought for their preservation. His successes dot the landscape and are evident in all the natural features that bear his name: forests, lakes, trails, and glaciers. Here collected are some of Muir's finest wilderness essays, ranging in subject matter from Alaska to Yellowstone, from Oregon to the High Sierra.

Whilst some of this space has changed, ethics of climbers, hunters and explorers, John Muir's writing captures the essence of what makes them special. Steven Brands soft Scottish narration makes the audio version a very comfortable listen that paints the spaces beautifully.
