Item description from seller

Here is the 1966 paperback reprint of Henry David Thoreau's book "Cape Cod" It was published by Thomas Y. Crowell in its 'Apollo Editions' series. This edition is now Out of Print. "This is the account of three walking trips that Thoreau made on Cape Cod in 1849, 1850, and 1855. Thoreau found a deep satisfaction in the simplicity of the Cape Codders' ways, the bare beauty of the landscape, and the ever-present ocean. With relish and good humor, he describes what he saw on his tramps about this wind-swept peninsula : remains of a shipwreck, windmills, seaweed, sea creatures, the changing water in its various moods, ships, lighthouses, birds, the scrubby vegetation, and especially the people. He enjoyed talking with the old salts, and this book is full of their yarns. " As always with Thoreau, his observations of nature caused him to meditate on their meaning, and the mighty waters pounding the Cape Cod beaches fascinated him. Here was the great elemental force - two thirds of the globe- teeming with animals, treacherous to seamen, but possessing many kinds of beauty. Thoreau met the elements and found them bracing. The country itself had the simplicity he had always striven to attain. Facing the ocean on Cape Cod, he wrote : 'A man may stand there and put all America behind him.' " (The above was excerpted from the rear cover write-up.)
