{"product_id":"wild-apples-9781429096195","title":"Wild Apples","description":"Thoreau's \"Wild Apples\" first appeared in The Atlantic Monthly in November of 1862. The story begins with a short history of the apple tree, tracing its path from ancient Greece to America. Thoreau saw the apple as a perfect mirror of man, and eloquently lamented where they were both heading. Though his words were written more than 150 years ago, they live on today as a reminder of the need to preserve what is wild. Thoreau wrote, ..\".our wild apple is wild only like myself, perchance, who belong not to the aboriginal race here, but have strayed into the woods from the cultivated stock.\" This short work is part of Applewood's \"American Roots\" series, tactile mementos of American passions by some of America's most famous writers and thinkers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e American Roots\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/31\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781429096195\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 56\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.70h x 4.30w x 0.30d","brand":"Henry Thoreau","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36650554818716,"sku":"9781429096195","price":11.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_6514cacc-2244-4d3b-810c-3fa13ef70bc5.jpg?v=1603875540","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/wild-apples-9781429096195","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
