{"product_id":"9780834826403","title":"A Mind with Wings: The Story of Henry David Thoreau","description":"It's July 4, 1845. A soft-spoken young man named Henry David Thoreau has carefully constructed a small, simple cabin in the woods overlooking Walden Pond. For the next two years, his closest companions will be the chickadees, the woodchucks, and the quiet pines of the Walden Woods. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHenry is twenty-eight years old, and his life has not been easy. His brother John—his closest friend and companion—has died. The only woman he ever loved has rejected him. On this day he has come to Walden in search of truth—not the truth taught in schools or in church, but the truth he can feel dwelling deep within him. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHenry opens his journal and begins to write: \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e    I went to the woods because I wished to \u003cbr\u003e    live deliberately, to front only the essential \u003cbr\u003e    facts of life, and see if I could not \u003cbr\u003e    learn what it had to teach, and not, \u003cbr\u003e    when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFollow Henry into the woods and out again—through a courageous American life that has changed our world for the better.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor ages 12 and up.","brand":"Shambhala Publications, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47131041366256,"sku":"9780834826403","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780834826403_p0.jpg?v=1763752582","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780834826403","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
