From the publisher

Thoreau's famous trip through the Maine Woods reissued to entertain, encourage, and inspire contemporary naturalists.

Thoreau paints the woods and waterways of Maine with the same loving hand that described his Walden home, and entertains with the successes and difficulties of the trip and the quirks of his companion and their guide, Joseph Polis, told with a wit and insight that can only be found in Thoreau.
