When John Muir, a young Scottish-American who loved nature, undertook a significant journey from Indiana to the Gulf of Mexico, it awakened in him a profound realization about the urgent need to protect the environment from the detrimental impacts of industrialization and the depletion of natural resources.

In "Our National Parks," Muir takes listeners on a captivating journey through some of America's most stunning wilderness areas, including Yosemite, Sequoia, and the Grand Canyon. His writings not only celebrate the beauty of these landscapes but also advocate passionately for their preservation.
