[pct-l] Ansel Adam's "The John Muir Trail" 1938 Book reprinted!

[Deems]

I am not familiar with Peter Starr's "John Muir Trail." Is it a photo
book? I do have a well-used, by me, copy of a 1970 edition of
"Starr's Guide to the John Muir Trail and the High Sierra Region" by
Walter A. Starr. Are the two related?

Pieces

Walter Starr, Sr was Peter's father, and published his son's wilderness 
notes into the "Starr's Guide to the JMT and the High Sierra Region" in 
1934. Walter Starr Jr, "Peter", died in 1933 climbing Michael Minaret in the 
current Ansel Adams Wilderness. Your book is the later reprint. There is 
also another great book called "Missing in the Minarets" by William Alsup 
that documents the massive search for Peter's body by many of the Sierra 
climbing legends, Norman Clyde, Jules Eichorn, and Francis Farquhar. The 
Starr's Guide (1934) is a great resource for finding xc routes and old 
abandoned Sierra trails.
