The Religion of John Burroughs

Clifford Hazeldine Osborne

  1. Among John Burroughs’ contemporaries were many who considered him irreligious because of his attitude to organized Christianity. Those were the days when one sign of true religion was to exercise a pharisaic hauteur toward the unorthodox. This attitude toward Burroughs, therefore, might have been expected, but it is strange to find many people today who are under the impression that he was a freethinker, a skeptic, or an atheist, or a mysterious mixture of all three. It is to meet this mistaken view that this book has been written. Contents: The Phantoms Behind; Before Genius; The Breath of Life; Soundings; At Sea; The Faith of a Naturalist; The Decadence of Theology.
