The man whose name is synonymous with contemplative rural life took a series of beachcombing walking trips around Cape Cod in the early 1850s. These are his reflections on the region's plants, animals, topography and weather plus his comments on encounters with local people, whose tales of exploration, settlement and survival constitute an oral history of New England. "Unquestionably the best book that has ever been written about Cape Cod and it is the model to which all new books about the Cape are still compared." - Walter Harding, The Days of Henry Thoreau.
