Journal, Volume I: 1837-1846

Thoreau's poems, many first printed in The Dial, gathered in an 1895 selection. Short pieces on rivers, mist, friendship and the inner life.

Henry David Thoreau

His journal from 1850 to September 1851, full of long walks, close looks at plants and animals, and the ideas that later grew into Walking. A window into how Thoreau thought and worked day by day.

Thoreau's letters to family and friends, Emerson among them, edited by his friend Franklin Sanborn. They show the warm, funny and private side of a writer often seen as a hermit.
