Walden
by Henry David Thoreau
Category: Authors, American

"In 1845, Henry David Thoreau moved into a cabin by Walden Pond. With the intention of immersing himself in nature and distancing himself from the distractions of social life, Thoreau sustained his retreat for just over two years. ...'Walden' is a paean to the virtues of simplicity and self-sufficiency." -- p. [4] of cover.
