Strange Age, (Audiobook)

<p>Henry David Thoreau is known as a naturalist, a philosopher and a leading Transcendentalist. But he was also a lifelong abolitionist and political activist. He was a conductor on the Underground Railroad helping fugitive slaves escape to freedom. He was the first to speak out, loudly and passionately, in support of John Brown after Brown's raid on Harper's Ferry. He wrote and spoke with unequaled clarity and strength on subjects as varied as slavery, war, taxation and government, history, law, technology, commerce, religion and the press. He examined how we are to live in this world and with each other. These works are written with singular drive and immediacy, and are surprisingly and extraordinarily relevant.</p><p>Included in this collection are: Slavery in MassachusettsResistance to Civil Government/Civil DisobedienceThe ServiceDark AgesParadise (to be) RegainedHerald of FreedomWendell Phillips Before the Concord LyceumWalkingLife Without PrincipleA Plea for Captain John BrownAfter the Death of John BrownThe Last Days of John Brown</p>
