{"product_id":"cape-cod-writings-of-henry-d-thoreau","title":"Cape Cod (Writings of Henry D. Thoreau)","description":"This new paperback edition of Henry D. Thoreau's compelling account of Cape Cod contains the complete, definitive text of the original. Introduced by American poet and literary critic Robert Pinsky--himself a resident of Cape Cod--this volume contains some of Thoreau's most beautiful writings.\n\nIn the plants, animals, topography, weather, and people of Cape Cod, Thoreau finds \"another world\" Encounters with the ocean dominate this book, from the fatal shipwreck of the opening chapter to his later reflections on the Pilgrims' landing and reconnaissance. Along the way, Thoreau relates the experiences of fishermen and oystermen, farmers and salvagers, lighthouse-keepers and ship captains, as well as his own intense confrontations with the sea as he travels the land's outermost margins. Chronicles of exploration, settlement, and survival on the Cape lead Thoreau to reconceive the history of New England--and to recognize the parochialism of history itself.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0691118426\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0691118426.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Thoreau, Henry David|Moldenhauer, Joseph J.|Pinsky, Robert\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
