Walden and On the Duty of Civil Disobedience by Henry David Thoreau from Coterie Classics

All Coterie Classics have been formatted for ereaders and devices and include a bonus link to the free audio book.

"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practise resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms." ― Henry David Thoreau, Walden: Or, Life in the Woods
Henry David Thoreau's famous year-long experiment near Walden Pond. This edition also includes Thoreau's famous essay, Civil Disobedience.
