bookshelves: unfinished
Read in July, 2007

I began this book while in Alaska, and while Muir is very enthusiastic about the landscape, the book is more of a travelogue than the kind of insight into the landscape that I was looking for. I struggled to make time for it in Alaska, and had no interest to continue when I returned.

With that said, Muir's journey was adventurous, and if one wants an explication of Alaska's state nickname--The Last Frontier—-this is a good place to start.
