manuscript letters of John Muir, 1861-1914, Wisconsin Historical
Society
These 30 letters, totaling
more than 100 pages, were written by Muir to five correspondents. Twenty are
to his old friend Emily Pelton, with whose family he boarded in Prairie du
Chien in 1860-61, or to her aunt Frances.
Four other letters are to childhood friends from Wisconsin, James Whitehead
and Milton Griswold. A few
other letters of a routine business nature are also included. All but six of
the letters have never been previously published in their entirety
(though typed copies of most were included in Muir's manuscripts at the University
of the Pacific).
