'We need to understand that when Thoreau sat in the dooryard of his cabin 'from sunrise till noon, rapt in a revery, in undisturbed solitude and stillness, while the birds sang around or flitted noiseless through the house,' he was offering counsel and example exactly suited for our perilous moment in time.' --Bill McKibben, from the introduction. First published in 1854, Henry David Thoreau's groundbreaking book has influenced generations of readers and continues to inspire and inform anyone with an open mind, a love of nature, and a longing for simplicity and contemplation. Bill McKibben provides a newly revised introduction and helpful annotations that place Thoreau firmly in his role as cultural and spiritual seer. This beautiful edition of Walden, published in honor of the bicentennial of Thoreau's birth, is more accessible and relevant than ever in an age of technological change and ecological crisis"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Thoreau, Henry David, $d 1817-1862 $x Homes and haunts $z Walden Woods. $z Walden Woods. 651 0 $a Walden Woods (Mass.) $x Social life and customs. 650 0 $a Wilderness areas $z Walden Woods. $z Walden Woods. 650 0 $a Natural history $z Walden Woods. $z Walden Woods. 650 0 $a Authors, American $y 19th century $v Biography. 650 0 $a Solitude. 655 7 $a NATURE / Essays. $2 bisacsh 655 7 $a LITERARY COLLECTIONS / Essays. $2 bisacsh 655 7 $a BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Literary. $2 bisacsh 655 $a Nonfiction/classics 700 1 $a McKibben, Bill, $e writer of introduction. $e writer of introduction. 700 $a Thoreau, Henry David, 776 08 $i Online version: $a Thoreau, Henry David, 1817-1862, author. $t Walden $d Boston : Beacon Press, 2017 $z 9780807098141 $w (DLC) 2017020735 941 $a 1 952 $l REPC017 $d 20220831010245.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3DC0738428F211EDB398BB3D49ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
