ABSTRACT:

Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862) was a great American author. Thoreau was a younger member of the transcendentalist group that flourished in mid 19th-century New England and was probably its best literary artist. His fame rest primarily on his unique master piece Walden and his famous essays like “Civil Disobedience” that influenced anti-establishmentarians like Mahatma Gandhi.
