Please post the first draft of your wilderness/nature claim as a comment to this blog entry. It should include the following language: "After reading and studying American literature and art related to American's perception of nature and wilderness, the MOST important thing to know is: ________________. Knowing this, we come to realize: ____________________"

Remember, your most important idea must be different from your realization. Use the debatable, provable, probable, significance concepts as a litmus test for your claim's quality.
