Canoeing in the Wilderness by Henry David Thoreau

5.0

A short read well worth the time. With his detailed descriptions, Thoreau paints a tableau of the landscapes and the people of a long gone era. He transports his reader into the wilderness of Maine, USA nearly 200 years ago, a time where local guides like Mr. Polis could still be found living and sharing their traditional ways. This book captured my imagination and will stay with me a long time.
