Items related to The Spiritual Journal of Henry David Thoreau
An Episcopal priest currently serving in Los Altos, California, Young does not write here about Thoreau's (1817-62) book itself but about its expression of the faith that people can experience in the holy in nature, that certain practices can help people prepare for the experience, and about the way of life that follows from such faith. He discusses religious practices, spiritual and transcendentalist journals, Thoreau's vision, seeing as communion, walking without traveling, and the wild.

Review:
Everything in this book is essential... Malcolm Young's [book] deals with ideas that relate to all of life, not just religious or spiritual life... it contains a rich fund of perceptive observation. I found myself often having to stop and think over something that is new, or just beautifully stated...
I love Malcolm Young's book. It makes Thoreau's vast and almost lifelong undertaking accessible, and extremely interesting. I felt I had to read every word of it, including the excellent footnotes... My interest in the subject is energized by [it].
Paul F.M. Zahl, The Anglican Theological Review
