Through Glacier Park

Humor, adventure and the spirit of the outdoors are the memorable qualities of this little book by one of America's most famous novelists. In her foreword, she writes: "To travel, then, is to do, not only to see. To travel best is to be of the sportsmen of the road. To take a chance, and win; to feel the glow of muscles too long unused; to sleep on the ground at night and find it soft; to eat, not because it is time to eat, but because one's body is clamoring for food; to drink where every stream and river is pure and cold; to get close to the earth and see the stars-this is travel."
