Walden Annotated

Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862) is considered one of the most important American writers.
Essayist, poet, naturalist, researcher, historian, philosopher, and transcendentalist, he is the author of numerous essays, including Civil Disobedience. His thought inspired great figures who changed society, such as Gandhi, Tolstoy, and Martin Luther King, Jr., to whom we owe a more just and free world than the one in which the author lived.
Also considered one of the pioneers of the ecological movement, he always defended contact with Nature, which he advocates in this timeless classic, The Art of Walking.
