1. To Cronon, the wilderness is commonly defined as a place that is pure, natural and
             untouched by man. Cronon does not see nature as such a pure place. He thinks that
             nature is basically the same thing as the city. Cronon writes that the city to a person from
             the country is the same as the country to a person from the city. He sees a problem with
             people taking vacations and building houses in the wilderness. Cronon thinks that if
             society got the image that almost everything around us, not just the uninhabited, was wild
             then people would not be as fascinated with nature.
             2. Cronon thinks that the fashion that the United States views the wilderness is not
             correct. He writes that the public uses words like, natural, uninhabited, and un-polluted.
             Some of the adjectives that Cronon uses to characterize our blindness and illusions are
             stupidity, ironic, and delusional. I took all the words the Cronon used as negative. I think
             that Cronons tone was a tone of intensity. I think that this tone made the reader take his
             argument more seriously and pay more attention to what he or she is reading. I had
             difficultly reading Cronons essay. His word usage was hard to interpret and he was biased
             about the subject that he was writing about.
