Selected Writings of Henry David Thoreau
(Fulcrum Publishing, 2003)
Although best known as America's first environmental philosopher, Henry David Thoreau left a broad legacy of writings on a variety of topics. Writing at a time when the issue of slavery was tearing our young nation apart, Thoreau, like his contemporary Ralph Waldo Emerson, wrote passionately about freedom for the slaves, as well as about his views on the Fugitive Slave Act and on the abolitionist John Brown. Here Thoreau's thoughts on freedom, which ring as true today as they did 150 years ago, have been gathered in a single volume.
