johnny-remember-me: Refugee from civilization, Wendell Beckwith fled a world-ranging career as a consulting engineer 17 years ago to design a life with nature. Thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning to find out that going to the mountains is going home; that wildness is necessity; that mountain parks and reservations are useful not only as fountains of timber and irrigating rivers, but as fountains of life.  John Muir
