John Muir was born in Scotland on April 21st, 1838.
Today being an environmentalist is laudable but in Muir\'s days the country was there to be exploited but by hard work and lobbying Muir did much to turn such beautiful areas as Yose.
John Muir is perhaps known today as the most pre-eminent naturalist and advocate for the preservation of much of the western United States.
His Father wanted his children to have a stricter Religious upbringing and therefore moved the family to the United States.
