{"product_id":"letters-to-a-friend-john-muir-9781409768487","title":"Letters to a Friend - Written to Mrs. Ezra S. Carr 1866-1879","description":"This vintage book contains a collection of letters written by John Muir to Ezra S. Carr. Whilst he was at university, Muir was a frequent caller at Carr's house. She was a botanist and lover of nature whom Muir would come to consider his spiritual mother - he felt that Carr thoroughly understood and sympathised with him. His letters, mostly written from the Yosemite Valley, give a good indication to his sensitive spirit and the life he lived sheep-herding, guilding, and tending a sawmill. This volume is highly recommended for those with an interest in the life and mind of this great author, and it would make for a worthy addition to any personal library. John Muir (1838 - 1914) was a Scottish-American writer, naturalist, and pioneering advocate of American wilderness preservation. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition - complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Muir\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1409768481\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781409768487\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Geikie Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/30\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 204\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.58lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.47d","brand":"John Muir","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43986067882239,"sku":"9781409768487","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_57ebd13f-27ca-4a92-9751-ea86a1ef7aad.jpg?v=1683281163","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/letters-to-a-friend-john-muir-9781409768487","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
