John Muir: A Reading Bibliography by Kimes (Muir articles 1866-1986)

John Muir Author of The Mountains of California WITH PICTURES BY JOHN A. PHASER.1 TO the lover of wildness Alaska offers a glorious field for either work or rest: landscape beauty in a thousand forms, things great and small, novel and familiar, as wild and pure as paradise. Wander where you may, wildness ever fresh and ever beautiful meets you in endless variety: ice-laden mountains, hundreds of miles of them peaked and pinnacled and crowded together like trees in groves, and so high and so divinely clad in clouds and air that they seem to belong more to heaven than …

General Abbot, and myself were going through tbet California redwoods, admiring their -wondrous bonuly and grandeur and silence, we came Suddenly upon a scene of disorder. At the foot of n shallow dell, where a little stream crosses the wny, we discovered three Indians, white man, and a bona,all in wild motion—especially the horse. He was a good-looking animal, well bred apparently, but laboring under furious excitement—snnriing, groaning, springing tip on liis hind legs and beating the tiir. then dropping on life …

Prof. John Muir,

Dear Mr. Muir:-

Your kind letter of Jany. 19th is forwarded me here where I am for a few days. I agree with every word you say, and I think that Robert Herrick struck the key-note when he spoke of the fulness of Philip's life. It was singularly complete. It was an ideal life, so to speak, which would afterwards be …

My dear Mail":

I am delighted to see the handwriting in your note of November 27th, a cheering sight to one in my physical condition.
As for your syndicate letters you know what ought to be said a great deal better than I do. My idea would be in a general way to write them in such a way as to arouse a general interest throughout the country in western forests, that is describe their beauty, importance, something of the trees that compose them and the destruction through fire, sheep, …

9077 LINN/EUS (1707-1778)' BY JOHN MUIR SraEygHE immortal Linnaeus—Carl von Lmne — was born in Sweden, * a cold rocky country now famous forever. He was born in @4§?§i the bloom-time of the year, May 13th, 1707; and contemplating this great event, one may easily fancy every living thing dancing and singing and clapping hands for joy. Whether descended from sea-kings and pirates as is most likely, or from fighting Normans or Goths, matters not; for he was a lover sent of God to revive and cheer and bless all mankind. And this h@did in spite of crushing poverty, and …

John Muir: A Reading Bibliography by Kimes (Muir articles 1866-1986)

Fire, the ax, and svholesale vandalism, have long threatened the forests of the country svith utter destruction ; but now, at this darkest time, the light of a better day begins to dasvn. The first settlers on the shores of America, seeking farms and bread, naturally regarded a tree as a kind of larger weed, to be got rid of as best they could; the forests seemed boundless, and there was no thought of possible evils resulting from their destruction, Nosv railroads, carrying everywhere the rapidly increasing population, ha\'e rendered nearly every tree in the country accessible to the ax …

Sunday, [after 1895]

Dear Mrs. McChesney:

Yours of the 14 set me thinking -- and I “believe I have shirked letter writing, and neglected my friends who are good beyond any desert of mine. Browning's line is apropos of this --
“If you loved only who are worth your love That were clear gain, and wholly well for you.”
But even justice compels me to say that I was, and am still very inert, from the long tension, I suppose.
I am not well, but neither am I diseased in any organ …

My dear Muir:-

First of all, let me thank you most warmly for your kind invitation to my son to come to California. Any other year but this it would be feasible, but I do not see how I can arrange it this year much as I prize the opportunity of having him with you in the mountains. His school will be out of the 27th of June and I wish with all my heart he could leave on the 28th for California. …

for the advanced chapters in the Century. I very much enjoyed a series of letters you once wrote for the San [Yo?] Examiner upon Alaska. Do you remember a Mrs. Wells and her husband whom you met the evening we spent at Mrs. Graydon's You will be sorry to hear that she lost her husband last summer. She is very sad. She was much pleased to meet you, and was much interested in your talk that evening. I think your book will do her good.
The kind remarks you penned in your last letter regarding our home, were very …

The Courts Of Judea, Jerome C. Knowlton

Articles

The study of Jewish jurisprudence has become interesting during the past ten years through the efforts of some painstaking scholars, who have not been burdened with any particular dogma, but have been actuated by a true Christian spirit. They have been close students of those portions of the Talmud which throw light on the jurisprudence of the Jews.

Berkeley, Cal., June 20, 1892.

My dear Mr. Muir:

I telegraphed you this morning that 1 would not be able to go with you to Mt. Diablo - at least for the present. I have to go south at once, unexpectedly, for a few days. I greatly regret the necessity of pulling out of this little visit to Professor Davidson. I notified Kerr and Prof. Christie, and this morning I understood that they were going anyway, but Kerr has just telegraphed me that he can not go after all. I suppose he …
