Editorial Reviews
Book Description

THOREAU ON LAND
NATURE'S CANVAS
Edited by Joseph Valentine
This elegant volume chronicles Thoreau's fascination with nature, from his well-known reflections on Walden to an unexpected meeting with loggers in the woods: "No doubt our employment is more alike than we suspect, and we are each serving the great Master's needs more than our own." He shows a Thoreau much broader in his interests and sympathies than most of us imagine.
