Stickeen by John Muir
QR code
"Stickeen" by John Muir is a short memoir published in 1897. It recounts an adventure Muir took in Alaska in 1880 with a small dog named Stickeen during a treacherous outing on a glacier. Now considered a classic dog story, it remains one of Muir's best-known writings. Muir himself called it the hardest thing he ever tried to write, yet believed the tale carried "a more definite and useful message" than perhaps
any other from his wilderness travels. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
