About A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers

A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers is a book by the American transcendentalist writer Henry David Thoreau. In it, Thoreau recounts a boating trip he took with his brother John from Concord, Massachusetts to the mountains of New Hampshire. It blends travel writing with nature observations and philosophical reflections inspired by the works of Ralph Waldo Emerson, who was Thoreau's friend and mentor.
