Dear Mr Muir,
I ought to have acknowledged long before this the receipt of your most charming book Our National Parks. You are partly to blame for the delay for I had to read every word carefully

before I could think of any letters to any one and then I began again at the beginning. You have given me a great pleasure. I now live in earnest hope of seeing something of the Yosemite or other of the Edens you describe.
I sent the other day my copy of Sir Joseph
[3]
Hookers Himalayan Journal. I know of another copy I can get sometime when convenient. But I thought you would like mine with Sir Joseph's writing within.
Have you done anything towards putting on record your impressions of your Old World travels?
