John Muir (1838-1914), a writer and conservationist, founded The Sierra Club in 1892, after a young adulthood spent ranching and traveling North and South America. After founding The Sierra Club, John Muir continued his travels, and met important figures of his time. Ralph Waldo Emerson said of Muir, "He is more wonderful than Thoreau." President Theodore Roosevelt, who camped with John Muir in Yosemite in 1903, later named Yosemite a National Park. Roosevelt later wrote An Appreciation of John Muir, which includes "It was my good fortune to know John Muir." (Outlook, vol. 109, pp. 27-28, 1915.) He was, and continues to be, the most influential and important naturalist in America's history.
