About this ebook
"I little thought that there was such a light shining in the darkness of the wilderness for me."
In Canoeing in the Wilderness, the eminent American essayist vividly recounts his journey through the Maine woods in mid-19th century America. The landscapes he encounters remind him of both the charms and wildness of nature untouched by modern man.
At once engaging and uniquely descriptive, Thoreau's classic travelogue reveals the authentic love of the natural world that established his legacy as a great environmentalist.
