Thoreau's Morning Work: Memory and Perception in a Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers, the "Journal," and Walden (Revised) - Paperback

by H. Daniel Peck (Author)

A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers and Walden, the only works Thoreau conceived and brought to conclusion as books, bear a distinctively important relation to each other and to his Journal, the document whose 24 year composition encompasses their development. In this book The author shows how these three works engage one another dialectically and how all of them participate in a larger project of the imagination.
