Light edgewear to the book and pictorial jacket, otherwise like new. "Ralph Waldo Emerson is one of the most important figures in the history of American thought, religion, and literature. The vitality of his writings and the unsettling power of his example continue to influence us more than a hundred years after his death. Now Robert D. Richardson Jr. brings to life an Emerson very different from the old stereotype of the passionless Sage of Concord. Drawing on a vast amount of new material, including correspondence among the Emerson brothers, Richardson gives us a rewarding intellectual biography that is also a portrait of the whole man." Size: Thick Octavo.

First Edition Signed
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Moser, Barry (illustrator). 1st Edition. Signed and dated in the year of publication on the first blank: "Robert D. Richardson, Oct 26 1986." Uncommon signed. The late Richardson was a winner of the Bancroft Prize, and this book prompted a fan letter from Annie Dillard (who did her undergraduate thesis on Thoreau) that blossomed into a romance, though they were both married at the time, and subsequently a long marriage. Good stuff. Near fine book with some faint foxing to top face of the text block; in a near fine jacket with an inconspicuous tape repair to a half-inch tear at rear upper corner at the flap fold. We invite you to explore our growing collection of signed and inscribed books related to Thoreau. // Wood (+) River (=) Books specializes in ecology, natural history, nature writing, the environment, and environmental literature, with a special passion for association copies and notable inscriptions.
