John Burroughs (1837-1921) was an internationally known naturalist and writer. Though he loved the Catskill Mountains in upstate New York -- where he grew up and where he had a house and several writing retreats -- Burroughs travelled widely. During his lifetime, Burroughs traveled to England, the Caribbean, Alaska, Hawaii, and much of the United States. This photo shows him with family and friends at the Grand Canyon.
