>"JOHN ELDER grew up in a very religious household.
His father was a Southern Baptist minister and seminary professor. ...
When Elder was in the third grade, the family moved to the San Francisco Bay Area so his father could teach at a seminary there.
>Their new community was cosmopolitan and liberal, and from an early
age Elder was exposed to writers like Henry David Thoreau, John Muir,
Edward Abbey, and Rachel Carson. Their work struck him as complementary
to the religious view of nature as God’s creation. “I was born into the
Southern Baptist Church,” he says, “and was nurtured at the bosom of
the Sierra Club.”
