DJ has original price of $3.00 on left flap fold. Chipping along top margin and head, and tail of spine. Tiny opentears to the top right and right corner. Some wear to spine fold at back of DJ.
An extraordinary personal testament to the life and times of one of America's great naturalists and literary figures- less a biography than an essay in defense of Thoreau by one of his closest friends. This moving, sensitive and charmingly writen rememberance offers valuable insights into the life of a remarkable man.
