Walden & Civil Disobedience - Vintage Classics
Henry David Thoreau
Henry David Thoreau?s account of his adventure in self-reliance on the shores of a pond in Massachusetts?part social experiment, part spiritual quest?is an enduringly influential American classic.
In 1845, Thoreau began building a cabin at Walden Pond near Concord, Massachusetts. The inspiring and lyrical book that resulted is both a record of the two years Thoreau spent in withdrawal from society and a declaration of personal independence. By virtue of its casual, offhandedly brilliant wisdom and the easy splendor of its nature writing, Thoreau?s account of his immersion in solitude has become a signpost for the modern mind in an increasingly bewildering world.
Also included in this edition is Thoreau?s famous essay, ?Civil Disobedience,? inspired by his anti-war and anti-slavery sentiments, which has influenced nonviolent resistance movements around the world ever since.
