Thoreau published only two books before his death. The first book is a week on Concord and Merrimack published by him at his own expense in 1849. This book was written by him in a wooden house near Walden Lake. It is a long argumentative paper, history, philosophy and religion during his trip to the two rivers in a week. Although it was carefully carved, it was unknown and did not cause any repercussions. It was published in the publishing house after selling 100 copies, and 75 copies were sent out and more than 700 copies were saved. Put it in the bookstore warehouse of 1853 and return it all to the author. Thoreau himself once said humorously, "There are about 900 books in my family, of which more than 700 are my own." The second book is Walden Lake, which was published in 65438. He emphasizes being close to nature, learning from nature and loving nature, and pursues a "simpler and simpler" simple life, and advocates that a short life is perfect because of rich thoughts. He spent decades observing and studying the succession of wild fruits, weeds and forests, and wrote the book Faith in Seeds, but it was not until Thoreau's death 150 years ago that this book, which took him decades of painstaking efforts, was published.
