Cape Cod

Fortunately for those who love the Cape, as well as for those who love to read, Henry David Thoreau left no stone unturned as he ambled through backyards, strolled along beaches, and traipsed through the scrub of this peninsula with the eye of an observer who was fully enthralled with the obvious. The result of his excursions was not just Cape Cod, but also this unique edition. While Thoreau's journals from the first three visits provided the basis for his text, his entries from the final visit are also included as an appendix. And following those, our newly re-designed volume retains the only complete index to this classic work.
