The Mountain World : A Literary Journey

  • The Mountain World : A Literary Journey
  • Attribution

    edited by Gregory McNamee
  • Publication Details

    Book, Sierra Club Books, 2000
  • Description

    We hear from familiar voices — Whitman, Muir, Dickens, Chekhov, Conan Doyle — and from those not so familiar but equally fascinating, including Russian naturalist Nikolai Prejevalsky and English “lady” adventurer Isabella Bird. Yet whether they speak of profound spiritual journeys, easy pleasure trips, or face-to-face encounters with death, all these voices are raised in collective celebration of the glories and terrors of the most awe-inspiring of Earth’s natural treasures.
