Seller's Description:
Very good. Connecting readers with great books since 1972! Used books may not include companion materials, and may have some shelf wear or limited writing. We ship orders daily and Customer Service is our top priority!
This edition was difficult to read as it was not clear where each essay started. It was an old yellowed book with small print and made the stories look unattractive. Only by perseverence would you read this copy. It should have been joyful, as it is a great piece of writing. Buy Walden as a book by itself, not as a compilation.
