Book Synopsis Letters to a Spiritual Seeker by : Henry David Thoreau

Download or read book Letters to a Spiritual Seeker written by Henry David Thoreau and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2004 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The writing of Henry David Thoreau is as full of life today as it was when he published Walden one hundred years ago. In seeking to understand nature, Thoreau sought to "lead a fresh, simple life with God." In 1848 a seeker named Harrison Blake, yearning for a spiritual life of his own, asked the then-fledgling writer for guidance. The fifty letters that ensued, collected here for the first time in their own volume by Thoreau specialist Bradley P. Dean, are by turns earnest, oracular, witty, playful, practical— and deeply insightful and inspiring, as one would expect from America's best prose stylist and great moral philosopher.
