Item Description
In 1861, Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862) embarked on a “Journey West” with Horace Mann, Jr. The duo used railroads and riverboats to travel from Massachusetts to Minnesota and back. The details of this last, longest, and least-known of Thoreau’s excursions has been veiled in mystery … until now. Westward I Go Free is the story of two 19th-century men and the 21st-century woman who was determined to follow their 4,000+-mile path. Written by Corinne H. Smith. Published by Green Frigate Books in early 2012.
