John Muir My Life With Nature John Muir Joseph Cornell Elizabeth Ann Kelley Christopher Canyon 9781584690092 Books Reviews

• I am an adult but this book made me laugh in almost every chapter and inspired me in a very rare way by the end of the book. It made me see nature in a totally new light through john muir's incredible love for it and I felt inspired to spend more time in nature asap. I guess that was the beauty of john muir's writing and personality as the book explains--he inspired people in a way no one else could. He lived an incredible life, was a genius and could have made millions but through following his own path he did something far greater---he started the conservation movement saving the wilderness for future generations. thank you joseph cornell for introducing me to john muir. I already had an interest in him after reading his genius story stickeen, but after reading this book, I must know more and read more of his writings.
• Very good book for young and old to learn about the importance and beauty of our planet. I did not know John Muir was a man so ahead of his time when it came to the preservation of Earth...the trees, the water, the critters...he did not just emphasize conservation, but extolled a spirituality of nature...even what a regular rock represents...that has stayed with me. What a Scottsman!
• It was a very interesting book that gave me insight into the life of a wonderful man. We went to Yosemite National Park right after I finished reading this book and so I was able to appreciate Yosemite 's history so much more than I would have been able to.
• I thought this book was written by john Muir. But it's written by someone else from the perspective of john Muir. Weird.
• Such a great book - I highly recommend it! Interesting to an 8 year old as well as to adults!
• Great book! I can't believe how strong and hardy he was back them. Definitely a great adventure story!
• This book is easy to understand and provides insight into the life and times of John Muir. DCB
• great book , my son is 8 years old and we read it together and we both enjoyed the book tremendously.
