DESCRIPTION - A Guide for hiking from San Francisco to Yosemite. With an account of the original 1868 trip by John Muir. This fascinating book really includes three books in this single volume. It's a guidebook for a walking/cycling route across California that follows John Muir's footsteps from San Francisco to Yosemite via the Pacheco Pass. It's an adventure book that tells the story of Peter and Donna Thomas' 2006 ramble across California to discover that route. And finally it is a history book, presenting in its entirety and for the first time, the complete story of John Muir's first trip to Yosemite. Muir took that trip in 1868, the year before Muir's First Summer in the Sierra, and it has never been published before, existing in obscurity in Muir's various writings, until it was reconstructed by Peter and Donna in preparation for their walk to Yosemite in his footsteps. The Thomases' Muir Ramble Route covers 305 miles divided into seven sections. Each section contains both directions for through hiking and a recommended trip that can be completed over a long weekend. The Thomas' offer several options for various sections: day hiking, backpacking, mountain biking, even canoeing. They suggest lodging options where available, and camping options wherever they are available along the route. They discuss advantages of walking versus cycling, how to plan vehicle shuttles, public transportation where available, and clothes and equipment suggestions, maps too. The Thomases have crafted a thoughtful and thought-provoking book that provides abundant information for the task at hand. inventory #46537.…

Unusual ephemeral items having to do with Peter & Donna Thomas and their private press. "In 1976 they established a private press. At that time their goal was to create books in the tradition of the great private presses: limited editions, made of the finest materials and produced with the highest standards of quality. They printed their first book in 1978, and spent the next ten years producing "fine press" books in both full size and miniature format. To assure that the books they made reflected their intent, they always made the paper, print and bound the books completely by themselves. In the late 1980's, concurrent with the infusion of new energy which spread through the book arts community when it was introduced to the personal computer, the Thomas' vision of the book they wanted to create expanded beyond simply "fine press". They began to work in new formats, exploring non-traditional book structures and shaped book objects, as both limited editions and one-of-a-kind books. In 1992 they printed Good Books, a bibliography of their work. This lists over fifty titles, representing many authors and a wide range of subjects, but the Thomases are not just publishers: they are artists who work in the medium of the book."

At the end of their interview Cyril said, 'If you want to meet a really old papermaker, you should go to Wells and meet the man who trained me.' So they set up a meeting the next week with Harry Glanville who was then ninety-two years old, born on the thirteenth of August 1896 in Hurst-Batch, Somerset.
