Travels in Alaska is a book written by John Muir, an influential naturalist and conservationist, describing his travels and adventures in Alaska. The book is a collection of essays that Muir wrote during his visits to Alaska between 1879 and 1899. In these essays, Muir shares his observations and experiences of the natural beauty of Alaska, including the glaciers, mountains, forests, and wildlife. He also writes about the native people of Alaska, their culture, and their way of life. Muir's love for nature and his passion for preserving it is evident throughout the book, as he describes the impact of human activities on the environment and the need for conservation efforts. The book is a fascinating account of Alaska's wilderness, its people, and its natural wonders, and it remains a classic in the field of nature writing.The most interesting of the short excursions we made from Fort Wrangell was the one up the Stickeen River to the head of steam navigation. From Mt. St. Elias the coast range extends in a broad, lofty chain beyond the southern boundary of the territory, gashed by stupendous canyons, each of which carries a lively river, though most of them are comparatively short, as their highest sources lie in the icy solitudes of the range within forty or fifty miles of the coast. A few, however, of these foaming, roaring streams--the Alsek, Chilcat, Chilcoot, Taku, Stickeen, and perhaps others--head beyond the range with some of the southwest branches of the Mackenzie and Yukon.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
