Excerpt from The Yosemite Valley: Its History, Characteristic Features, and Theories Regarding Its Origin In 1904, when ninety years of age, Mr. Clark published a book on the Indians of the Yosemite, which was followed in 1907 by a volume on the Big Trees of California. These books are written in a simple and entertaining style and have proven valuable contributions to the lit erature of Western America. They have been widely read and are regarded as the most authoritative works on the subjects of which they treat. So far as I know, Mr. Clark's experience has been absolutely unique in becoming an author at the age of ninety. In this, his latest and most pretentious book, the manuscript of which he had personally handed to his printer less than two weeks before being summoned to his last account, he succinctly and delightfully presents descriptions of all the cataracts and waterfalls, Spires and domes, trees and flowers, islands and lakes, rivers and vales, and the multi plicity of other objects which have made the Yosemite Vallev the masterpiece of the scenic world.

Excerpt from Yosemite Valley Since that day scientists have struggled with the question of the origin of the wonderful gorge, and many theories have been advanced. Was it due to some sudden titanic convulsion of Nature, which split open the earth's crust, leaving this great scar which Nature is covering with trees and owers; was it some tremendous subsidence clue to internal volcanic forces; was it the gradual, resistless erosive work of water, ever owing, through eons and eons of time, that wore away these granlte mountain peaks and left a valley in their place; or was it a glacier, a veritable mer-de-glace, that ground its downward way through the snowy passes until, meeting a gentler clime, it melted away, leaving us to read the story of its work in the glacial polish glistening upon the faces of Half Dome and old El Capitan? But the man who loves Nature in all her varied moods may well leave these problems to the academic discussion of science. Rather let his eye rove over the glorious riot of color and the splendor and majesty of form, the while his ear is charmed and his Whole being thrilled as Nature plays for him her wondrous scale of harmony from tinkling rivulet to thunderous waterfall.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
