THOREAU Henry David
Autograph manuscript leaf from Walden
1854. THOREAU Henry David. Autograph manuscript leaf from Walden. Concord Massachusetts 1854. One leaf measuring eight by ten inches writing in ink on recto and verso window mounted housed in a custom portfolio. $39000.A wonderful item: an original autograph manuscript leaf from Henry David Thoreau's masterpiece Walden including passages from the chapter ""Higher Laws"" where Thoreau discusses his moral ambivalence about fishing and another from the ""Baker's Farm"" chapter that also features fishing.This autograph manuscript leaf contains passages from at least two chapters of Walden. The first paragraph can be found in the ""Baker's Farm"" chapter where at one point Thoreau takes shelter from the weather with an Irish farmer John Field. The passage reads: ""
I trust he does not hear this:thinking to live by some derivative old-country mode in this primitive new country to catch perch with shiners. With his horizon all his own yet he a poor man born to be poor with his inherited Irish poverty or poor life his Adam's grandmother and boggy ways not to rise in this world he nor his posterity till their wading webbed bog-trotting feet get talaria to their heels."" This is followed by the text from the beginning of the next chapter ""Higher Laws"" contrasting physical and spiritual existence and part of a later section that continues that same theme but with a focus on fishing: ""As I came home through the woods with my string of fish trailing my pole along when the world had waxed dark I glimpsed a woodchuck dark across my path and felt a strange flush of savage delight and was strongly tempted to seize and devour it raw. The wildest most desolate scenes had become strangely familiar to me. Thus it is I find predominantly in me an instinct to a higher and more spiritual life than the common and also another inclining to a primitive and savage life and I reverence them both alike. I find continually that I cannot fish without falling a little in my own respect. I have tried it again and again. I have skill at ita certain instinct for it which revives from time to time but always when I have doneI feel that it would have been better if I had not fished. I think I am not mistaken. It is a faint intimationyet so are the first streaks of morning. It tempts me because it's a means of having arguments with naturenot only with fishes but with ___ and water and scenery. Which I should not otherwise see under the same aspects
"" Math equations in pencil. presumably in another hand upside down at the bottom of the verso.Leaf with loss to some edges just touching text at one point. A very rare leaf from an original Walden manuscript with exceptional content. unknown

CAPE COD
Boston: Ticknor and Fields 1865. First edition and printing. 8vo publisher’s original green pebbled cloth lettered and decorated in gilt on spine embossed in blind on both covers of a wreath within framed boarders. BAL's binding "A" no sequence determined. 6 252 pp. ads dated December 1864. A very good and handsome copy with only light edgewear or evidence of shelving to the tips light and light mellowing internally. SCARCE FIRST EDITION. Thoreau occasionally left his beloved woods to visit and write about other places. He went to Cape Cod “Wishing to get a better view than I had yet of the ocean which we are told covered more than two thirds of the globe but of which a man who lives a few mile inland may never see any trace.†<br> Thoreau's account of his meditative beach-combing walking trips to Cape Cod reflecting on the elemental forces of the sea. "Cape Cod chronicles Henry David Thoreau’s journey of discovery along this evocative stretch of Massachusetts coastline during which time he came to understand the complex relationship between the sea and the shore. He spent his nights in lighthouses in fishing huts and on isolated farms. He passed his days wandering the beaches where he observed the wide variety of life and death offered up by the ocean. Through these observations Thoreau discovered that the only way to truly know the sea—its depth its wildness and the natural life it contained—was to study it from the shore. Like his most famous work Walden Cape Cod is full of Thoreau’s unique perceptions and precise descriptions. But it is also full of his own joy and wonder at having stumbled across a new frontier so close to home where a man may stand and “put all America behind him.†- Penguin Nature Library Ticknor and Fields hardcover

THOREAU Henry David
Survey of 'Eagleswood'
1856. Signed. THOREAU Henry David. Autograph signed Survey of ""Eagleswood"" the estate of Marcus Spring near Perth Amboy New Jersey. Concord Mass. 1856. Survey measures 22 by 30 inches ink on linen-backed paper with annotations in the hand of Marcus and Rebecca Spring. $26000.Rare exceptionally large example of one of Thoreau's surveys in his hand and signed by him done for the estate of Marchus and Rebecca Spring who were prominent philanthropists and active Quaker abolitionists. Beautifully framed.For several years Thoreau had worked on and off as a surveyor to supplement his meager income. As one of his contemporaries noted ""His profession was that of a surveyor; and it is easy to imagine how with his poetic temperament while laying out roads and measuring woodlots he came to be what he was"" Frank Preston Stearns quoted in Thoreau as Seen by His Contemporaries 79. In 1852 the wealthy Quaker abolitionist Marcus Spring ""purchased a two-hundred acre tract on the shores of Raritan Bay a mile west of Perth Amboy New Jersey and incorporating as the Raritan Bay Union and erecting a tremendous brownstone and brick phalanstery 254 feet long three stories high with dormitories apartments and schoolrooms he attempted to establish a co-operative community. When the community did not prosper he decided in 1856 to rename it Eagleswood and to convert the property over into small estates for New York City commuters hoping to attract them with pleasant country living a good school lyceum lectures and other cultural activities and good commuter service via steamboat to the city. Bronson Alcott was visiting at Eagleswood at the moment and suggested Thoreau as the ideal surveyor for the project"" Harding The Days of Henry Thoreau 370. When Thoreau arrived he found a community with an ""unconventional bent and slightly radical sympathies
just the audience for him"" 371. Although somewhat alarmed at their presumptions on his timethey expected him to attend the community dance prompting him to note in horror that ""they take it for granted you want society!""they were also eager to hear him read from his work which considerably pleased Thoreau. Spring and his wife Rebecca had met Thoreau before when in 1850 Emerson had sent Thoreau as a representative of the Fuller family to the site of the ship wreck at Fire Island where Margaret Fuller and her husband died. Emerson asked the Springs to assist Thoreau if needed Harding 278. Rebecca Spring herself came from a family of radicals; as the daughter of the abolitionist Arnold Buffam she was one of John Brown's last visitors in prison before he was executed. The survey was professionally restored and laid down on new linen; there were several tears from the folds a few burn marks from a fire which consumed part of the Spring archive; overall in very good condition beautifully framed. unknown

Writings
1906. Signed. THOREAU Henry David. The Writings. Boston and New York: Houghton Mifflin 1906. Twenty volumes. Octavo original three-quarter brown crushed morocco raised bands gilt-decorated spines top edges gilt uncut. $37500.Manuscript Edition beautifully bound and illustrated limited to 600 copies with manuscript leaf from Walden two sides entirely in Thoreaus hand.Each set in this important limited edition includes a Thoreau manuscript leaf mounted and bound into the first volume. The leaf in this set is from the chapter entitled ""Baker Farm"" from Walden Thoreau's masterwork. The leaf reads in large part: ""If it had lasted longer it might have tinged my employments and life. As I walked on the railroad causeway I used to wonder at the halo of light around my shadow and would fain fancy myself one of the elect. One who visited me declared that the shadows of some Irishmen before him had no halo about them that it was only natives that were so distinguished
"" See Volume II p. 224. The verso of the leaf is from an earlier section of this chapter. It reads again in part: I know but one small grove of sizable trees left in Concord supposed to have been planted by the pigeons that were once baited with beechnuts near by; it is worth the while to see the silver grain sparkle when you split this wood; the bass; the hornbeam; the Celtis occidentalis or false elm of which we have but one well-grown; some taller mast of a pine a shingle tree or a more perfect hemlock than usual
"" See Volume II p. 224. ""Thoreau's Walden occupies a special place in our American heritage. Moreover the book is still alive and vibrant and it reaches out to touch the life of each one of us who is receptive
it has come to be thought a central document in the American experience
"" Thorpe Treasures of the Huntington Library. ""Solid chunks of thought in the midst of a solid chunk of nature proving that the minimum of cash expenditure and of creature comfort may result in the maximum of acute observation and celebrationfor almost a hundred years an inspiration to nature-lovers to philosophers to sociologists
and to persons who love to read the English language written with clarity"" Grolier 100 Influential American Books 63.
