{"product_id":"walden-or-life-in-the-woods-1","title":"Walden, Or, Life in the Woods","description":"In the spring of 1845, Henry David Thoreau built a wooden hut on the shores of Walden Pond outside Concord, Massachusetts, intending to devote himself--for a time--to a simple life. The product of his two-year stay there was this volume of classic essays--one of the great books of American letters and a masterpiece of reflective philosophizing. Accounts of his daily life are interwoven with musings on the virtues of self-reliance and individual freedom, on society, government, and other topics--all expressed with clear-headed wisdom and remarkable beauty of style. Unabridged republication of the work published by Ticknor and Fields, Boston, 1854. Introductory note. 1 line illustration. 1 map.","brand":"Blue Vase Bulk","offers":[{"title":"Used \/ 9780486424729-001","offer_id":43782529187901,"sku":"9780486424729-001","price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/4497103482361.jpg?v=1791482370","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/walden-or-life-in-the-woods-1","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
