It's easy to see how influential this book been for so many. I admire Thoreau's iron will, the clarity of his conviction and the simplicity of his protest. It is a reminder of not too long ago of how much has changed in the world and our views of liberty with it.

Thoroughly enjoyed, but will need to read again, much of it is devoid of excitement but all is good ideas so I will read again to catch the gems i missed the last time. Found this book because of it's appearance in the film: 'Upstream Colour'
