Winter (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781646794942)

"Is not January the hardest month to get through? When you have weathered that you get into the gulf-stream of winter nearer the shores of Spring."

-Henry David Thoreau, Winter (1888)

Winter: From the Journal of Henry D. Thoreau (1888) is the compilation of the insightful observations of nature Thoreau made from 1841-1859. Rather than following a yearly chronological organization, the journal is organized by month to give the reader an in-depth depiction of a beautiful rather than bleak winterscape in New England. Published posthumously, Thoreau's two-million-word journal, regarded by some critics as his best work, is a must-read for lovers of Walden (1854), philosophy, and nature.
