"[The author] traces the full arc of Thoreau’s life, from his early days in the intellectual hothouse of Concord, when the American experiment still felt fresh and precarious, and 'America was a family affair, earned by one generation and about to pass to the next.' By the time he died in 1862, at only forty-four years of age, Thoreau had witnessed the transformation of his world from a community of farmers and artisans into a bustling, interconnected commercial nation. What did that portend for the contemplative individual and abundant, wild nature that Thoreau celebrated? Drawing on Thoreau’s copious writings, published and unpublished, [the author] presents a Thoreau vigorously alive in all his quirks and contradictions: the young man shattered by the sudden death of his brother; the ambitious Harvard College student; the ecstatic visionary who closed Walden with an account of the regenerative power of the Cosmos. We meet the man whose belief in human freedom and the value of labor made him an uncompromising abolitionist; the solitary walker who found society in nature, but also found his own nature in the society of which he was a deeply interwoven part. And, running through it all, Thoreau the passionate naturalist, who, long before the age of environmentalism, saw tragedy for future generations in the human heedlessness around him."--

Boggy Meadow is a mysterious place - especially that spot in the Western Woods that many speak of in hushed tones. There was once a showman called Sir Henry, the keeper of the local freak show. Three years after his death, locals have reported activity on the old property and peculiar flyers spreading around the town center. Residents and brave tourists alike did not account for such an eerie surprise... A horror novel set in America during the time period of The Great Depression, featuring tales of adversity, trauma, revenge, and overcoming isolation. A grief stricken man finds himself risen from the grave, on a mysterious path to discover what put him there in the first place. Along the way, he accumulates a band of misfits who have also found themselves cast aside by society. This anthology chronicles these dark tales. This book details the back histories of Sir Henry, Poppy, Vex, Kane, Pyrum, and more. Authors Amanda Rosenblatt and Brad Acevedo, who are devoted fans of this fictional universe, bring the world of Boggy Meadow to life. The book is a love letter to fans of haunted attractions and the holiday of Halloween. Based on the iconic haunted attraction in Central Florida created by Zach Glaros, Sir Henry's Haunted Trail was established in 2014. It has survived multiple hurricanes and the COVID-19 pandemic, and it continues to entertain many fans year after year.
