Download or read book A Passion for Nature written by Donald Worster and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Donald Worster's 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, and a self-made man of wealth and political influence. The winner of numerous book awards, A Passion for Nature was also named a Best Book of 2008 by Washington Post Book World. It is the first comprehensive biography of Muir to appear in six decades.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Letters of John Muir, Vol. 2 Not many weeks after the receipt of this initial article, Mr. Avery accepted an appoint ment as Minister to China. Not ambition for honors, he wrote to Muir, but the com pulsion of broken health made me risk a foreign appointment, and I especially regret that the opportunity to share in the publication of your valuable papers, and to know you most inti mately, is to be lost to me. To the deep regret of his friends, Avery died in China the follow ing year. Mr. Carmany, despairing of the Overland as a financial venture, let it come to an end in 1875, and Muir, when his current engagements were discharged, formed new literary connections.
