Review & Description
This book examines the nature writing and philosophy of one of America's most important writers, and the founder of Transcendentalism. His work influenced Henry David Thoreau, Walt Whitman and many others, both at home and abroad. Here are excerpts from his writings, gleaned from personal journals as well as published works, to provide a glimpse into the mind of a true lover of nature. Walt McLaughlin has compiled this selection of Emerson's most thought-provoking nature writing. The text is accompanied by 34 Roderick MacIver watercolors. Read more
