A Thousand-Mile Walk to the Gulf, John Muir’s captivating and lyrical travelogue, chronicles his remarkable 1867 journey from Indiana through Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina, Georgia, and Florida to the Gulf Coast. Muir draws on his diaries to deliver a vivid and evocative portrayal of the natural world, as well as the people and towns he encountered in the American South in the aftermath of the Civil War. Muir’s passionate love of nature is on full display in this beautifully written tribute, which serves as a testament to the transformative power of travel and the enduring importance of preserving our natural heritage. This Warbler Classics includes sketches by Muir that appeared in the first edition of the book and a detailed biographical note.
