BURROUGHS, John [1837-1921] -- American poet and naturalist
Contents: |
a/k/a
Hermit of SlabsidesJohn O´Birds
In his day he was considered one of America's finest writers,
and his nature essays in the Atlantic Monthly (from 1865) were very popular.
He spent much of his time in a rustic cabin of his own construction, "Slabsides", 1895,
in Esopus, NY,
less that 20 miles west of where I presently sit writing this page.
