Essays by Ralph Waldo Emerson - 9781986917292

In the early days of the American experiment, as the states spread across the continent and the young nation was reshaped by the Industrial Revolution, no intellectual held more power than Ralph Waldo Emerson.

Through lectures, letters, and essays, Emerson helped a nation discover its identity.
