5356 Knoll StGermantownPhila. Pa.11.24.1914.Esteemed FriendJohn MuirI have made some inquiry in regard to thy book on "Alaska" hoping it was coming out at this time, but do not hear of it yet. Where can I get it when it is ready. Thy book on the "Yosemite" I have read also "Stickeen" & Our National Parks" & now am waiting for "Alaska" & thy Autobiography05884

I have enjoyed them all, I have as yet read. Have just finished reading of a party who traveled in Alaska; lately & the book was written by Marshall Sc[illegible]ll, The unfortunate part was, they killed so many beautiful animals,SincerelyFannie P. Carter.
