Sobre este artículo
An unrestored copy in the original cloth. The chief work of one of the major figures in American literature. Thoreau writes, "I learned this, at least, by my experiment; that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours" (p.346).
