Thoreau: Book Guide, Author and Facts
Thoreau by Maximilien Le Roy: plot, author, genre and where to read, in one evergreen guide.

Henry David Thoreau was also the father of the concept, still fresh today (viz "Occupy Wall St."), of "civil disobedience" which he used against slavery and the encroachment of government.
