John Burroughs (1837-1921) was an American essayist and naturalist who wrote extensively about the natural world. Born in the Catskill Mountains of New York, Burroughs spent much of his early life working on the family farm and attending school. In 1854, he left home to work as a schoolteacher and later as a clerk in Washington, D.C. During the Civil War, Burroughs worked as a government clerk and became friends with Walt Whitman, who encouraged him to pursue a writing career. More about John Burroughs
