“Everyone knows that Thoreau is at or near the top of the list of American thinkers and writers. But as this lovely volume reminds us, he was also a world-class noticer, a remarkable and original observer of all things natural.”
— Bill McKibben, author of Deep Economy
To Buy the Book —
“Geoff Wisner's Thoreau's Animals gives the reader the opportunity to approach the animals of Thoreau's Concord as Thoreau would: from unexpected angles, from a different view, unhurriedly, with deliberation and sympathy.”
— Jeffrey Cramer, editor of Walden: A Fully Annotated Edition
What's Happening —
I'm delighted to report that Thoreau Farm in Concord, Massachusetts, has organized a whole series of programs around my upcoming book A Year of Birds.
