Winter Impressions from John Muir and Henry David Thoreau

from Boring Books for Bedtime Readings to Help You Sleep

Let's sink into seasonal slumber with two essays by famed American naturalists. In the first, John Muir takes us to Tahoe in the winter, where he delights in its glacial-born beauties and his friend skis poorly. In the second, Thoreau regales us with tales of mischievous visitors to his cabin in Walden. Delightful!   Help us stay ad-free and 100% listener-supported!
