Henry David Thoreau was born in Concord, MA in 1817, and is best know for his influential work, Walden, which was published by Ticknor & Fields in 1854. Thoreau stresses the importance of solitude and closeness to nature, as well as the significance of self-reliance. The book contains information about the beginnings of the project, observations about nature, identifications of plants and animals, and philosophical musings on various subjects. He spent two years, two months, and two days in the cabin, which he had built himself amongst woodland owned by his friend Ralph Waldo Emerson. It is a memoir that recounts Thoreau's time spent in a cabin near Waldon Pond, Massachusetts, which he considered an experiment in 'home economics' - a chance to escape civilisation, embark on spiritual discovery, and live simply and self-sufficiently.
