      abstract = {"This volume of John Muir's selected writings chronicles  the key turning points in his life and study of the  American wilderness. The Story of My Boyhood and Youth is  Muir's account of his childhood on a Wisconsin farm, where  his interest in nature was first piqued; in The Mountains  of California, The Yosemite, and Travels in Alaska, we  follow him on long journeys into stunning mountain ranges  and valleys, where he records native flora and fauna and  finds proof of his theories of the effect of glaciers on  landscape formation. These four full-length works--along  with a selection of important essays--helped galvanize  American naturalists, and led to the founding of the Sierra  Club and several national parks."--Provided by publisher.},
