Wild Fruits: Thoreau's Rediscovered Last Manuscript

by Henry David Thoreau

Wild Fruits: Thoreau's Rediscovered Last Manuscript Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Book News Annotation:

Thoreau (1817-62) protests the desecration of the landscape, reflects on the importance of preserving wild spaces for instruction and recreation, and envisions a new American scripture. Difficulties with the handwriting, method of composition, notations, and pagination have kept his final observations and meditations from being published previously. Now Dean, director of the Media Center at the Thoreau Institute, has wrought it into print and added voluminous notes.
Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Synopsis:

The distinctly American gospel--never before published--of America's great nature writer, mystic, ecologist, and prophet. Line drawings throughout.
