Henry David Thoreau,Carl Bode
Henry David Thoreau dedicated his life to preserving his freedom as a man and an artist. Nature was the fountainhead of his inspiration and his refuge from what he considered the follies of society. Heedless of his friendsâ€™ advice to live in a more orthodox manner, he determinedly pursued his own inner bent, which was that of a poet-philosopher, in prose and verse. Carl Bode brings together the best of Thoreauâ€™s works in ,The Portable Thoreau,, a comprehensive collection of the writings of a unique and profoundly influential American thinker.
