Excursions; with a biographical sketch by Ralph Waldo Emerson

Excursions presents texts of nine essays, including some of Henry D. Thoreau's most engaging and popular works, newly edited and based on the most authoritative versions of each. These essays represent Thoreau in many stages of his writing career, ranging from 1842--when he accepted Emerson's commission to review four volumes of botanical and zoological catalogues in an essay that was published in The Dial as "Natural History of Massachusetts"--to 1862, when he prepared "Wild Apples," a lecture he had delivered during the Concord Lyceum's 1859-1860 season, for publication in the Atlantic Monthly after his death. Lively, light pieces, they reveal Thoreau's early use of themes and approaches that recur throughout his work. -Amazon.com.

  • "These nine essays, among Thoreau's most popular writings, grew out of his daily saunters around Concord, Massachusetts. Published only after his death, these early works document Thoreau's developing eye for natural description. Includes Walking," A Natural History of Massachusetts," A Winter Walk," Autumnal Tints," Wild Apples" and Night and Moonlight," among others."
