Item description from seller

First Edition Thus, First Printing (1985). Hardcover in publisher's original pictorial dust jacket (no mylar). Oblong quarto, 224 pp. Illustrated throughout with over 100 full-page and text photographs by William F. Robinson in both full color and duotone monochrome, alongside historical cartographic drawings and route maps. Bound in publisher's original cloth with gilt spine titling. A photographic recreation of Henry David Thoreau's classic 19th-century coastal excursions along the forearm of Cape Cod. Combining Thoreau's complete unabridged text—originally published posthumously in 1865—with the camera work of maritime historian and photographer William F. Robinson, who retraced Thoreau's steps on foot along the Great Beach from Eastham and the Highland Light up through the Truro dunes and Provincetown.
