First edition. Original publisher's grayish green heavily embossed cloth with decorative gilt device and lettering on spine. In Binding A, with Thoreau named as author of Walden on spine, etc. With Ticknor and Fields 24pp ads in back, dated December, 1864. A near fine copy, with both hinges integral, and no foxing, very slight loss of brilliance to gilt on spine, but wholly present. Thoreau enjoyed Cape Cod and made four trips during his lifetime, spending his time on relaxing walks. The book presents perhaps a more humorous side of Thoreau�s personality, and has been often reprinted in various illustrated versions over the years.

Cape Cod is a collection of essays by Henry David Thoreau based on his experiences and observations while traveling to Cape Cod, Massachusetts.
