This series examines the deeper aspects of Henry Thoreau's Walden as it explores its significance for today's rapidly changing world. Written over 150 years ago, this powerful statement about the environment, society and the spiritual world still continues to challenge us to live responsible and ethical lives. Tom Potter, immediate Past-President of the International Thoreau Society, located in Concord MA, the historic home of Henry Thoreau, will be guiding our review of this and other of Thoreau's works. Tom, a nationally recognized Thoreau scholar, regularly lectures both in Concord and elsewhere around the country on Thoreau's works and message.
