#fridayreads: The Sierra Club

 

The Sierra Club was founded on May 28, 1892.  While we can't bring the outdoors indoors in Jessup Library, we can help you explore nature using books from our collection.  Whether you're interested in the history and mission of The Sierra Club, or if you want ideas for how to approach the preservation of nature, we have you figuratively covered under a canopy of trees.
