Summary: its academic
Comment: I found this to be an annoying book. The subject matter is intriguing but the author's style is so highfalutin, verbose and academic that little real wisdom is effectively imparted to the reader. This is ironic since his subject is Henry David Thoreau who took great care to write plainly. The best writing in the book is in the notes which serve as a good bibliography.
