Book Description
Icon of environmental consciousness, independent living, and social justice, Henry David Thoreau has probably generated more poems about him than any other secular individual. Beginning with his contemporaries and continuing today, they illustrate our changing views of the man in a passionate form of expression rich in emotion and meaning. A whole library of books has been written about Thoreau, but maybe poetry best explains why his legacy is both enduring and endearing.
