Of Walden Pond: Henry David Thoreau, Frederic Tudor, and the Pond Between
Holiday House, 2022
illustrated by Ashley Benham Yazdani
Thoreau and Tudor could not have been more different from each other. Yet both shared the bounties of Walden Pond and would change the course of history through their writings and innovations.
This study in opposites contrasts the austere philosopher with the consummate capitalist (whose innovations would change commercial ice harvesting and home refrigerators) to show how two seemingly conflicting American legacies could be built side by side.
