Kevin Dann emulates and extends Thoreau's experiment in radical self-education. Alternating between personal anecdotes from his spring 2017 walking pilgrimage and other \"traveler\" encounters and episodes told by Thoreau, Dann structures his book around 12 \"injunctions\"--distillations of seminal stories about overcoming convention and stasis. In this essential reading for every Thoreau enthusiast, naturalist and historian Kevin Dann brings to life an essential American icon in refreshing and modern way.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Publishing Group\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/10\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780143132837\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.40w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/28\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/15\/2018 pg. 73\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Kevin Dann","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44700378759349,"sku":"9780143132837","price":20.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_693a1d38-b5a0-44c9-aa8e-6234331ae271.jpg?v=1728396902","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-road-to-walden-12-life-lessons-from-a-sojourn-to-thoreaus-cabin-9780143132837","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
