This book celebrates Thoreau's life and is written by distinguished scholars. The contributions are aimed at non-academic readers as well as specialists, and they affirm Thoreau's continued relevance today. The book argues that Thoreau was drawn toward empirical, materialist and local, yet also holistic, cosmic and global understandings of nature and experience.
