Thoreau spent alone in a secluded cabin at Walden Pond. This edition--introduced by noted American writer John Updike--celebrates the perennial importance of a classic work, originally published in 1854. Much of Walden's material is derived from Thoreau's journals and contains such engaging pieces from the lively Where I Lived, and What I Lived For and Brute Neighbors to the serene Reading and The Pond in the Winter. Other famous sections involve Thoreau's visits with a Canadian woodcutter and with an Irish family, a trip to Concord, and a description of his bean field. This is the complete and authoritative text of Walden--as close to Thoreau's original intention as all available evidence allows.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis is the authoritative text of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eWalden\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e and the ideal presentation of Thoreau's great document of social criticism and dissent.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Henry D.
