Great book for fifth and sixth grades and up!

An excellent biography for fifth and sixth grade readers. Illustrations and a creative design greatly enhance this book, with both color and black and white photographs, charts, and maps; also including quotations by and about Muir and conservation philosophy. Does an excellent job of relating Muir's life and work to contemporary environmental issues and concerns. Includes addresses for further information, a short bibliography, a glossary, a chronology of Muir's life, and a one-page index. Suitable for either home or classroom use.
