Sobre IBD

A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers is a reflective travel narrative in which Henry David Thoreau recounts a weeklong boat journey he took with his brother along the Concord and Merrimack rivers. Blending observations of nature with philosophy, history, poetry, and personal reflection, Thoreau uses the trip as a way to explore themes of simplicity, self-reliance, spirituality, and humanity’s relationship with nature. The book is less about the physical journey and more about inner growth and thoughtful engagement with the natural world.
