Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very good. First edition. Inscribed on the orange front free endpaper: "For Linda Hemming, with all good wishes from another Thoreauvian, Frederick T McGill, Jr." With a quick sketch of a running man below his name. Uncommon signed. The first full-length biography of Channi…ng, a close friend of Emerson and especially of Thoreau ("the poet" in the famous dialogue in Walden) and a fellow Transcendentalist. McGill was a professor and then dean at Rutgers and served as the president of the Thoreau Society. In light of the inscription, possibly the inscribee was a member of the society. A book label from the Thoreau Lyceum in Concord is at the bottom of the FFEP, the previous owner's signature at the top. Very good with sporadic foxing to the beige cloth of the boards; underlining in blue ink scattered throughout the interior. In a very good jacket with some foxing to rear panel and wear to spine ends and corners. Signed.
