John
Muir is known today as the founder of the Sierra Club, the driving
force behind the creation of Yosemite National Park, and as this
nations first environmentalist. It was in his youth that the
foundation for his love of wilderness was laid. This ninety-minute
feature film chronicles Muirs early life in Scotland and on
the American frontier, and tells how he escaped the drudgery of
farm work in the wilds of Wisconsin. We see Johns evolution
from farm boy to mechanical wizard, factory foreman and, eventually,
wilderness tramp.
