Reading up on John Muir, a truly wild-eyed prophet, and getting ready for
some time in Yosemite...
I saw this post about Robert Underwood Johnson, who became editor of the
Century, and published many essays by Muir. One site says "Johnson's
autobiography, *Remembered Yesterdays*, tells of his friends and
acquaintances, including Theodore Roosevelt, John Burroughs, Nikola Tesla,
Mark Twain, and Rudyard Kipling, to all of whom he introduced John Muir."
Just wondering: Can anyone confirm that MT met Muir? Does anyone know if
there are any good accounts of the meeting? Anything else: what he
thought of Muir, did he read Muir??
