"The early twentieth-century works of Mary Austin and John Muir are nature-writing classics. Midwesterners by birth, Austin and Muir both adopted the American West as their home and wrote about its grand and wild landscapes in ways that came to define the genre of western nature writing. Here, for the first time in a single volume, are excerpts from both writers' work: Austin's 'Earth Horizon' and 'The Land of Journeys' Ending' and 'The Grand Canon of the Colorado' and 'Travels in Alaska'. An introduction by Ann Zwinge provides lliterary analysis and biographical context and explores the two writers' influence on a tradition of western nature writing that continues today." 182 pages.

First Edition
Hardcover first edition - First printing. Includes excerpts from Austin's 'Earth Horizon' and 'The Land of Journeys' Ending' and Muir's 'The Grand Canyon of the Colorado' and 'Travels in Alaska.' Selected by Ann Zwinger, who also wrote the introduction and provided the illustrations for this attractive volume. In her introduction, she states: 'Muir and Austin are the first truly western nature writers. Their writing, their point of view, their dedication to the mountains and the deserts of the West have sustained western nature writers from their day forward.' Austin was also a pioneering feminist and her writings are often tinged with her political awareness. xxvi, 182 pp. Fine in fine dust jacket (as new.).
