Two of this country's greatest writers on the natural world.--Washington Post Book World
"As thinkers and artists, [Austin and Muir] were made by the West. Though neither was born in it, they found it their spiritual home, the source of their power. Their writing about it is an act of acknowledgment, a gift from the heart. From them we still learn to see our mountains."--Ursula K. Le Guin, Portland Oregonian
"John Muir and Mary Austin exemplify the patterns and perspectives of classic nature writing. . . . Muir appears as the solitary, romantic explorer . . . [while Austin's] feminism and inclusivity point up the limitations of the romantic excursion as a basis for sustainable relations with land."--John Tallmadge, Orion
Introduction and Illustrations by Ann H. Zwinger

Hardbound. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. First Edition. First Edition and Printing. A NEAR FINE, bright, clean, tight copy in a MYLAR PROTECTIVE COVER. "The early twentieth-century works of Mary Austin and John Muir are nature-writing classics. Midwesterners by birth, Austin and Muir both adopted the American West as their home and wrote about its grand and wild landscapes in ways that came to define the genre of western nature writing. Here, for the first time in a single volume, are excerpts from both writers' work: Austin's 'Earth Horizon' and 'The Land of Journeys' Ending' and 'The Grand Canon of the Colorado' and 'Travels in Alaska'. An introduction by Ann Zwinge provides lliterary analysis and biographical context and explores the two writers' influence on a tradition of western nature writing that continues today." 182 pages.
