John Muir spent part of his life admiring and trying to preserve nature. He spent the other half commercializing and trying to fight for more efficient utilization. He believed that although most americans have a high appreciation for nature, not many will actually fight to preserve it. Throughout Muir's life he was plagued with many chronic illnesses, but still denied the fact that anything in nature was at all dangerous or harmful. Overall, John Muir was an American naturalist, and early advocate of preservation of wilderness in the United States.
