this book is the crystal of John Muir's writing

Three books I like best writen by John Muir are 'My First summer in the Sierra', 'The Mountains of California',and 'Travels in Alaska'. Three writings I love best from each book are 'The Tuolumne camp', 'A Near View of the High Sierra', and 'My Sled-trip on the Muir Glacier'. If I carried only this Fleck's edition, I always can read my best three articles. Nevertheless, this edition contains a rare article 'Mountain thoughts', which is my Gospel and essence of John Muir's thought and mind, which you could not find easy in other books except 'John of the Mountains', original thick edition. The introduction written by Fleck is another joy where our human spirit and primal Muir's nature fuse.
