Review title: Superb survey of Thoreavian criticism
Product review: Gary Scharnhorst read and digested virtually every commentary on Henry Thoreau in English from the earliest reviews to the critical studies up to the time of this book's publication. The book is a gift to Thoreau's fans and scholars. Scharnhorst doesn't play favorites with any critical approach. He offers a balanced view of everything he considers, noting trends and doing brief content summaries to save readers many hours of work. Anyone researching Thoreau at the graduate or professional level should see this book.
