|
| THE WORLD OF JOHN BURROUGHS, The Life and Work of One of America's Greatest Naturalists. Kanze. Photo-documentary of one of the earliest and most articulate pioneers of the conservation movement. Publishing twenty-eight books on the natural history during the height of the industrial revolution, his close friends and traveling companions included Walt Whitman, Theodore Roosevelt, Thomas Edison, and John Muir. Toward the end of his life, he was so well known that he often had trouble finding the solitude he needed to create his deeply prophetic works. As an author, teacher, and poet, he spoke with intimacy and feeling, using only words to make nature come to life on the written page. #STO-8042.
