Review # 1 was written on 2017-07-05 00:00:00 Fer Rer This is a well written book about Pleasants County and it's captial city St. Marys. I loved the way the chapters flowed. The pictures are delightful. One of my favorite's is of Julia Goodluck and the cat that is getting it's breakfast from the cow that is being milked. The history is well written and it is wonderful to read someone that acknowledges the first people that settled the county were the Native Americans. It is really discusting to read a place was first settled by someone from another country when we all know the Native Americans were here first. This is a MUST READ!!!

Review # 2 was written on 2019-06-13 00:00:00 Michael Acuna Our National Parks is a collection of essays that John Muir wrote for The Atlantic. I agree with many reviewers who have described Muir as "verbose." However, hidden among the pages of botanical descriptions are delightful stories about his encounters with bears, hermits, earthquakes, avalanches, and even a tired mule. My favorite story, when Muir tried to convince Ralph Waldo Emerson to camp with him in Yosemite, is the source of his famous quote, "The mountains are calling." Anyone who has visited---or plans to visit---Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Yosemite, or Sequoia would enjoy reading these essays.
