In about 1960, I first came across a reference to John Muir in a National Geographic Magazine article on America's National Parks. Later on found most of his books on trips to Wisconsin, his home for a while. Fascinating books, I think they are all still in print, also various omnibus editions and compilations of his writings available on Amazon.

Now getting a lot more recognition this side (UK) of the Atlantic, with the John Muir Trust, John Muir Birthplace Trust and the John Muir Country Park near Dunbar.

I loved Brian McNeill's song from first hearing many years ago. Never found a way to sing it yet, must be time to have another go!
