THOREAU AS WORLD TRAVELER
By JOHN A. CHRISTIE
"Live at home like a traveler," Thoreau advised a friend. This simple
statement by a writer renowned for immortalizing a small New Eng–
land town gives us a new view of Thoreau-the voyager at home. He
devoured travel literature and studded his writings with references to
popular travel books. Professor Christie has tracked Thoreau to his
sources and has here recreated the global routes and discoveries that
so delighted him.
