Thoreau's Walden (1910) (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781165211371)

Thoreau's Walden is a book written by the American author and philosopher Henry David Thoreau, first published in 1854. The book is a reflection on Thoreau's two-year stay in a cabin he built himself in the woods near Walden Pond in Massachusetts. The book is a combination of memoir, natural history, and social criticism, and explores Thoreau's ideas about self-reliance, simplicity, and the importance of living in harmony with nature. Thoreau describes his daily life in the cabin, including his observations of the natural world around him, his interactions with the local community, and his thoughts on topics such as politics, economics, and spirituality.Throughout the book, Thoreau emphasizes the importance of living deliberately and rejecting the materialistic values of society. He argues that by simplifying our lives and focusing on what is truly important, we can achieve a greater sense of fulfillment and happiness. Thoreau's Walden has become a classic of American literature and is widely regarded as a masterpiece of philosophical writing. It continues to inspire readers with its message of self-reliance and environmentalism, and its celebration of the beauty and wonder of the natural world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
