From a photograph owned by Mr. Muir Floating Iceberg, Taku Inlet: ["Voyages of Muir and Young, in Southeastern Alaska," map from Alaska Days with John Muir (New York: Fleming H. Revell Co., )]. In the late s Muir made several trips to the pristine, relatively unexplored territory of Alaska. Irresistibly drawn to its inspiring glaciers and its wild menagerie of bears, bald eagles, wolves and whales, he recorded his experiences and reflections in Travels in Alaska, a work he was in the process of completing at the time of his death. John Muir's "Travels In Alaska" is his accouts of his trips to Southeast Alaska in , , and Southeast Alaska years ago was sparsely settled and poorly explored; Muir's adventurous spirit and enquiring mind led him to investigate the numerous inlets and glaciers in the area, including the magnificent and much-celebrated Glacier Bay.

For forests and plains with their flowers and fruits we have new scenery, new life of every sort; water hills and dales in eternal visible motion for rock waves, types of permanence. From the Inside Flap. Travels in Alaska, which John Muir was working on at the time of his death, is based on journals Muir wrote during his visits to Alaska in , , , , and From the moment he embarked from San Francisco in May, , "off for icy Alaska," Muir sensed he was on an extraordinary adventure.
