Mitchell, editor of the National Audubon Society's Sanctuary magazine, writes prosaically of a year spent in a cabin in semi-wild Massachusetts. During the course of the year, he reads the journals of Thoreau, whom he calls "Henry," and he draws many obvious parallels between Thoreau's year at Walden Pond and his own time in self-imposed simplicity. Long sections of the book are devoted to Mitchell's brother and their father, both of whom kept journals, and both of whom Mitchell seeks to understand by musing about their writings. Mitchell brings a careful eye to the beauty that surrounds him but is prone to tangent-following and woolgathering, remaining a fairly mysterious character in his own book. Nice for large general-interest collections, but not for specialists or libraries on tight budgets.

Hardback. Zustand: Good. In this second book in his Scratch Flat Chronicles, John Hanson Mitchell tells how he set out to recreate Henry David Thoreau's two years at Walden Pond in a replica of Thoreau's cabin. Mitchell lived off the grid, without running water or electricity, in a tiny house not half a mile from a major highway and in the shadow of a massive new computer company. Nevertheless, his contact with wildlife, the changing seasons, and the natural world equaled and even surpassed Thoreau's. Hugely popular with the international community of Thoreau followers when it was first published, this book will now be essential reading for the growing community of people who are interested in living in a tiny house, fully experiencing the natural world, or finding self-sufficiency in an increasingly plugged-in society.
