Henry David Thoreau’s Journal was his life’s work: the daily practice of writing that accompanied his daily walks, the workshop where he developed his books and essays, and a project in its own right—one of the most intensive explorations ever made of the everyday environment, the revolving seasons, and the changing self. It is a treasure trove of some of the finest prose in English and, for those acquainted with it, its prismatic pages exercise a hypnotic fascination. Yet at roughly seven thousand pages, or two million words, it remains Thoreau’s least-known work. This reader’s edition, the largest one-volume edition of Thoreau’s Journal ever published, is the first to capture the scope, rhythms, and variety of the work as a whole. Ranging freely over the world at large, the Journal is no less devoted to the life within. As Thoreau says, “It is in vain to write on the seasons unless you have the seasons in you.”

Excerpt from The Journal of Henry David Thoreau, Vol. 2: 1850 September 15, 1851 What extracts from the Vedas I have read fall on me like the light of a higher and purer luminary, which describes a loftier course through a purer stratum, free from particulars, simple, universal. It rises on me like the full moon after the stars have come out, wading through some far summer stratum of the sky.

These volumes are a reprint of the 1906 edition of Henry David Thoreau's journal, which covers the years 1837 through 1861 in fourteen volumes.The journals were used by Thoreau as both a personal log and as a repository for information which he would later use in his formal publications. After Thoreau's death the journals were bequeathed to his sister, Sophia Thoreau, then to H.G.O Blake, and then to E.H. Russell. Selections of the journals had been released to the public by Blake, but Russell sought to publish the journals in their entirety. The journals were prepared for publication by Bradford Torrey and Francis H. Allen for the Houghton Mifflin publishing company and were released in 1906 as a fourteen volume set. It is with great pride that Sportsman's Vintage Press presents this facsimile reprint of the 1906 edition prepared by Torrey and Allen.Please note that this book is a facsimile reprint of an earlier edition. We use high quality scans which are then enhanced and retouched to ensure readability.
