Thoreau was an American naturalist, essayist, poet, and philosopher. A leading transcendentalist, he is best known for “Walden”, a reflection upon simple living in natural surroundings, and his essay "Civil Disobedience", an argument for disobedience to an unjust state.
Thoreau travelled to Cape Cod in Massachusetts four times, which inspired this “excursion” or travel book.
