Published after Thoreau’s death, Excursions gathers essays drawn from his walks and observations of the natural world. Whether describing forests, rivers, changing seasons, or the habits of wildlife, Thoreau encourages readers to slow down and see nature with fresh eyes. This 1894 Riverside Edition is a classic example of late nineteenth-century American literary publishing. An appealing volume for collectors of transcendentalism, nature writing, and the works of the author of Walden.
