The required reading for all rangers and volunteers at John Muir NHS is this Pulitzer Prize-winning biography by Linnie Marsh Wolfe: "Son of the Wilderness, The Life of John Muir".

The only book John Muir ever wrote for children is the story he told his two daughters around the dining room table. That story of a small black dog with a big curly tail and an even bigger heart is called: "Stickeen".
