Description
With 18 Full Color Photos! 'Walden' is one of the best-known non-fiction books ever written by an American.
It details Thoreau's sojourn in a cabin near Walden Pond, amidst woodland owned by his friend and mentor Ralph Waldo Emerson.
Walden was written with expressed seasonal divisions.
Thoreau hoped to isolate himself from society in order to gain a more objective understanding of it.
Simplicity and self-reliance were Thoreau's other goals, and the whole project was inspired by Transcendentalist philosophy.
This book is full of fascinating musings and reflections.
As pertinent and relevant today as it was when it was first written. "When I wrote the following pages, or rather the bulk of them, I lived alone, in the woods, a mile from any neighbor, in a house which I had built myself, on the shore of Walden Pond, in Concord, Massachusetts, and earned my living by the labor of my hands only.
I lived there two years and two months. At present I am a sojourner in civilized life again."-Henry David Thoreau.
