Thoreau also includes several essays on the abolition of slavery and other social reform movements of the time. Written in Thoreau's signature style, the book is a thoughtful and thought-provoking exploration of the intersections of politics, society, and the natural world.The First Part Of This Book Describes A Trip To Canada.
