Description: The classic from Henry David Thoreau!! This is WALDEN & THE ESSAY ON CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE. This 446 page paperback was published in 1968. From the back cover we read, "On July 4, 1845, Henry David Thoreau, a 28-year-old Harvard graduate, moved into a cabin he had built on the shore of Walden Pond, near Concord, Massachusetts. For two years he remained alone. He fished, swam, rowed and, with his physical needs reduced to a minimum, at only food he could forage or grow. Resulting from his unique experiment was WALDEN, a book of 18 essays describing a philosophy of self-reliance and economy in living in the interests of spiritual growth. At the pond, Thoreau had touched the lives of moles and pickerel, had listened to the wind and distant whistles. It was from such homely experiences-felt and deeply thought upon-that his idealistic creed arose and matured. WALDEN was first published in 1854, Equally incisive and outspoken on the theme of individualism was Thoreau's essay on CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE, printed five years before. In it Thoreau states that one's conscience, not necessarily the law, is his moral judge-an idea in which there is renewed interest today." Also includes a copy of CLIFFS NOTES ON THOREAU'S WALDEN.
