In 1857 Henry David Thoreau moved to a small cabin in the woods near Walden Pond where he lived as a recluse from society
for just over two years. In his time of self-prescribed isolation, Thoreau recorded his daily routine and reflections in an
effort to get away from the noise brought about by a mainstream society. His work became one of the most influential American
literary works of all time.
Thoreau's daily journal entries became the foundation for one of the most well-known works of Transcendental philosophy to this day. Published as one title, Walden is a quasi-memoir and naturalist manifesto that has withstood the test of time. The work continues to inspire generations to switch it up, unplug, and revert to the higher calling of nature.

Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862) was an American writer, thinker, naturalist, and leading transcendental philosopher. Graduating
from Harvard, Thoreau’s academic fortitude inspired much of his political thought and lead to him being an early and unequivocal
adopter of the abolition movement. This ideology inspired his writing of Civil Disobedience and countless other works that
contributed to his influence on society. Inspired by the principals of transcendental philosophy and desiring to experience
spiritual awakening and enlightenment through nature, Thoreau worked hard at reforming his previous self into a man of immeasurable
self-sufficiency and contentment. It was through Thoreau’s dedicated pursuit of knowledge that some of the most iconic works
on transcendentalism were created.
