The Seer Of Slabsides PDF Download

Excerpt from The Seer of Slabsides This title, "The Seer of Slabsides," does not quite fit John Burroughs - the Burroughs I knew. He was a see-er. A lover of nature, he watched the ways of bird and beast; a lover of life, he thought out and wrought out a serene human philosophy that made him teacher and interpreter of the simple and the near at hand rather than of such things as are hidden and far off. He was altogether human; a poet, not a prophet; a great lover of the earth, of his portion of it in New York State, and of everything and everybody dwelling there with him.
