Produktinformationen "Henry David Thoreau, The Indian"
Readers can relive the experience of Thoreau's last wilderness trip through the eyes of his Penobscot Guide, Joseph Polis. Joe was an exceptionally gifted man, an expert in the wilderness, and an expert in building and using a canoe in all weather and conditions. One can plan their own trip with the materials given herein as well as further their knowledge of safe travel and wilderness living. The equipment available in 1857 is definitively not recommended for a trip today but the running commentary points to contemporary preferences; however, the means of travel and outdoor living skills can only slightly be improved upon. This story reveals much about Thoreau and Polis as well as how the forests and lakes of Maine during the heyday of lumbering and exploration were used and how they have changed. Many people say: ' I haven't gotten to Maine yet, but it is beautiful and I want to go there sometime'. If that is you, read this book now and you will be well on your way!
