If You Have Built Castles in the Air...

Date of Review:  Feb 6, 2002
The Bottom Line: A book worth reading, and reading again, for the sheer buoyancy of its prose and the clarity of its message.
Review: The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation.

Henry David Thoreau, a member of the transcendental movement centered in Concord, Massachusetts, in the 19th century, retreated to Walden Pond in 1845. During the two years and some odd...

Walden: A Call to Spiritual Arms

Date of Review:  May 3, 2000
Review: I love shorewalks in the evening. I love the way great, grey waves, shaggy
with foam, shatter on the broken shoreline; the meandering jags of chalky

sunbeams, as the...

The Most Well-written and Wise Self-Help Book Ever.

Date of Review:  Apr 28, 2001
The Bottom Line: Absolutely read this! BUT...keep in mind that most of the details do not apply to you. Thoreau is honest and passionate AND an individual to the core.
Review: Henry David Thoreau and his masterpeice, Walden or Life in the Woods, has a curious reputation. The reviled enemy of highschool students throughout the US, it is simultaneously gaining respect and admiration from intellectual circles. Truth be told,...

First Line
  When I wrote the following pages, or rather the bulk of them, I lived alone, in the woods, a mile from any neighbor, in a house which I had built myself, on the shore of Walden Pond, in Concord, Massachusetts, and earned my living by the labor of my hands only. I lived there two years and two months.
