Nature by Ralph Waldo Emerson, hand-bound in genuine leather by LeatheredLines. Published anonymously in 1836, Ralph Waldo Emerson's essay Nature became the founding statement of American Transcendentalism. He describes standing on bare ground and becoming a "transparent eyeball," and argues that nature reveals the spirit that runs through all things. A short, inspiring classic that influenced Thoreau and generations of nature writers.
