About this book

Henry David Thoreau's 1850s travels through Maine's mostly deserted forests are collected in "A Word From the Maine Woods." Thoreau gives a thorough description of the woods, using both common and botanical names for trees, birds, and plants. He also writes down the Native names for rivers, lakes, and vegetation.

Thoreau's most comprehensive description of the wilderness may be found in this book, which also tells a moving story of his travels through a harsh yet mainly pristine landscape. It is a classic Thoreau work that tells a narrative of the author's interior and outward discoveries in a natural environment.
