Synopsis
Besides WALDEN, Thoreau's A WEEK ON THE CONCORD AND MERRIMACK RIVERS is the only one of his works to be published in his lifetime. Written while he lived in the Walden cabin, this book is a tribute to the trip he took with his older brother John, who died of lockjaw in his brother's arms when Thoreau was 25. WALDEN, his classic account of the solitary life, describing his attempts to simplify his life and sort out his priorities by living alone in a cabin beside Walden Pond for nearly two years, is one of the most influential books ever written. When he died, Thoreau was working on THE MAINE WOODS; Published posthumously in 1864, it is a brilliantly evocative journey into the world of Maine's inland wilderness. His account of his travels and explorations on Cape Cod is considered his most genial book, and one of his most appealing. Thoreau's CAPE COD, which was published in 1865 after his death, remains an indispensable guide to the area.
