This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature. In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards: 1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a 'fresh and newly' reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions. 2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentional\unintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work. We believe that this work holds historical, cultural and/or intellectual importance in the literary works community, therefore despite the oddities, we accounted the work for print as a part of our continuing effort towards preservation of literary work and our contribution towards the development of the society as a whole, driven by our beliefs. We are grateful to our readers for putting their faith in us and accepting our imperfections with regard to preservation of the historical content. HAPPY READING!

Autorenporträt
John Muir (1838-1914) was a pioneering naturalist, environmentalist, and writer whose profound influence on the conservation movement is still felt today. Born in Scotland and emigrating to the United States in 1849, Muir's deep connection with nature began in the wilderness of the American West. His extensive travels through the Sierra Nevada, the Yosemite Valley, and Alaska provided him with a wealth of experiences that he eloquently shared through his writings. Muir's work, including notable books like Steep Trails, reflects his passion for the American wilderness and his commitment to preserving it. His vivid descriptions of landscapes and insightful observations on natural history underscore his belief in the intrinsic value of nature and the necessity of its conservation. Muir was a key figure in the establishment of national parks and a co-founder of the Sierra Club, advocating for the protection of natural environments against the encroachments of industrialization. His legacy is marked by a deep respect for the natural world and a commitment to environmentalism that continues to inspire nature enthusiasts and conservationists. Muir's writings remain a touchstone for those seeking to understand and appreciate the beauty and significance of the wilderness.
