For two years, two months, and two days, Henry David Thoreau lived entirely self-sufficiently at Walden Pond. He built a cabin to live in, cultivated and fished for his own food, and observed the nature around him. In Walden, he writes about his life at the pond — about self-reliance, self-discovery, and self-reflection. He argues that distancing oneself from modern society is the only path to true freedom.

Walden is one of the greatest American classics and has inspired readers since its publication in 1854 with its messages of conservation and simple living.

HENRY DAVID THOREAU [1817-1862] was an American poet, essayist, and philosopher. He advocated for the abolition of slavery, and his essay »Civil Disobedience« has made him an inspiration for modern anarchists. Most famous for his groundbreaking works in natural history, which preceded today's environmentalism, his seminal work remains Walden.
