the (severely abridged) selections don't do the journals justice. snag a copy of the originals instead. walden fans can discover snippets among his entries, while general thoreau lovers can trace his evolution from grand and heavy-handed metaphors (the birds are the sphere-music of the gods!) to sparsely scientific observations that ironically reveal his integration into nature (my reading, at least).
