On a stormy Alaska day in 1880, John Muir arose before dawn, thrust a piece of bread into his overcoat pocket, and set out to explore a newly discovered glacier. A mongrel dog named Stickeen ran along behind him, thus launching an adventure that Muir was to call 'the most memorable of all my wild days.' This exhilarating story has become an American classic, enjoyed equally by young people and adults. 86 pages; 5.5 inches x 8.5 inches; black-and-white illustrations; paperback; copyright 1990, Heyday Books
