The Laws of Nature: Excerpts from the Writings of Ralph Waldo Emerson (Softcover)

Edited and with an Introduction by Walt McLaughlin

Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882) was one of the most thought-provoking writers of the 19th century, influencing Henry David Thoreau, Walt Whitman, and many others. He was among the first to incorporate the power of wild nature into his worldview, thus giving birth to Transcendentalism.

Walt McLaughlin, editor of this collection and fine author in his own right (see Forest Under My Fingernails, link below), has studied Emerson's works for many years. The excerpts in this work are gleaned from an exhaustive study of Emerson's journals and published works. They provide an intriguing journey into the mind of a true lover of nature.

Filled with Roderick MacIver watercolors in full color.

96 pages, softcover book.
