The Cabin Down the Glen (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798642948064)

When Pulitzer Prize-winning author Odell Shepard turned 50, he retreated to a cabin in the deep-forest solitude of his beloved northwestern Connecticut to write this book. In clear, elegant prose, Shepard draws insights from things common and near to hand: bird song, spring water, stone walls and starry nights. Yet, pondering the signposts of his passing youth, present maturity and eventual decline, his thinking brings him to the brink of mysticism. Written in 1935, published now for the first time, The Cabin Down the Glen will engage admirers of Walden, The Outermost House, Pilgrim at Tinker Creek ... and all who love Connecticut.
