John Burroughs (April 3, 1837 - March 29, 1921) was an American naturalist and nature essayist, active in the U.S. conservation movement.[1] The first of his essay collections was Wake-Robin in 1871.In the words of his biographer Edward Renehan, Burroughs’ special identity was less that of a scientific naturalist than that of 'a literary naturalist with a duty to record his own unique perceptions of the natural world.' The result was a body of work whose resonance with the tone of its cultural moment explains both its popularity at that time, and its relative obscurity since
