Hetch Hetchy: Yosemite's Lost Valley title

OUT OF STOCK

"An Evening with John Muir: Conversation with a Tramp"
Performed by Lee Stetson
(VHS). A KQED-TV S.F. production. 1992.

John Muir was a superb mountaineer, founder of the Sierra Club, architect of the National Park idea, and a spell-binding story-teller, and his passionate love of wilderness is captured here in a zestful performance by veteran actor Lee Stetson.

A 100 foot climb to the top of a Douglas fir in the midst of a bracing windstorm, a dance with death in the midst of the Yosemite Fall, a wilderness saunter with Teddy Roosevelt, and his final stirring dsefense of Yosemite National Park -- threatened by a dam project [in Hetch Hetchy Valley] -- are among the many highlights you'll enjoy in this stunning performance.

CONVERSATION WITH A TRAMP, drawn from Muir's books, articles and journals, and told largely in his own words, abounds with humor, energy and a gentle philosophy which will delight the entire family.

LEE STETSON has created a one-man theatrical tour de force. This production has played for more than a decade in Yosemite National Park, delighting well over 100,000 visitors, and has toured extensively throughout the United States, Canada, and Great Britain.
