The Illustrated WALDEN with Photographs from the Gleason Collection

Mehr zum Buch

Featuring 66 photographs by renowned landscape photographer Herbert W. Gleason, this illustrated edition captures the essence of New England as celebrated by Thoreau. Gleason's journey began in 1906 when he was commissioned to illustrate Thoreau's writings, leading him to explore and document the exact locations described by Thoreau, preserving their original beauty. His deepening passion for the project resulted in a collection of images, most of which were selected by Gleason for a planned edition of Walden that ultimately remained unpublished.
