The Illuminated Walden

Summary: Great pictures, poor text
Review: The photographs in the book are stunning, but the choice of such an antiquated and unscholarly text, particularly from a Thoreau scholar and President of the Thoreau Society, is abominable. Too bad the book is devalued by such a poor choice of text.

Summary: Wonderful Photographs with Thoreau's Words from Walden
Review: This book is a wonderful bargain and is a fine complement to the
complete text of Walden. The photographs capture the magic of
Walden Pond that Thoreau experienced and the passages selected
mirror this magic and include some of Thoreau's most revelatory
writing.
