Theatrical Release Information:
Story of Yosemite

This 50-minute video is divided into two sections, the docu-drama "The Poet and the Rough Rider" and "John Muir's Yosemite." "The Poet and the Rough Rider" captures the spirit of the early conservation movement by focusing on its two most outstanding leaders, John Muir and Theodore Roosevelt. In 1903, Roosevelt and Muir spent three days together wandering through Yosemite. This dramatization features Lee Stetson as Muir and Joseph Early as Roosevelt. "John Muir's Yosemite" contains miscellaneous scenic shots of the Yosemite Valley with a voice-over of an actor reading passages of Muir's writings. ~ Karla Baker, All Movie Guide
