As the most comprehensive study of Thoreau's spirituality from a Christian perspective, this book is the first to seriously examine connections between his religious practices and those of his Protestant forebears. While a few writers have considered the relation between Thoreau's thought and Christian doctrine, this book instead outlines the links between Thoreau's religious practices and those of earlier New England Protestants. This work is also the first study to compare his journal with the spiritual journals of prominent Puritans, Anglicans, Methodists, and Quakers. Spiritual journals are treated here as a distinct literary genre.
Mercer University Press, 2009. Hardcover, 288 pp.
