About

When the pandemic struck, nature writer David Gessner turned to Henry David Thoreau, the original social distancer, for lessons on how to live. Those lessons-of learning our own backyard, re—wilding, loving nature, self—reliance, and civil disobedience-hold a secret that could help save us as we face the greater crisis of climate.
