## Description

With this stamp, the U.S. Postal celebrates writer, philosopher, and naturalist Henry David Thoreau (1817 1862) on the bicentennial of his birth. Renowned for his book Walden, a complex and eloquent exploration of nature and society, Thoreau encouraged readers to reconsider both their own lives and the world around them. With his personal example of simple living, his criticism of materialism, and the timeless questions he raises about the place of the individual in society and humanity's role in the natural world, Thoreau continues to inspire new generations to assert their independence, reinterpret his legacy, and ask challenging questions of their own. From July 1845 to September 1847, Thoreau lived outside his hometown of Concord, Massachusetts, in a one room house on a lake, where he made time to write while farming, reading, thinking, taking long walks, and observing the doings of nature around him. The book Thoreau wrote about his experiences there would become one of the most widely read, translated, and debated books in the American literary canon. In Walden, published in 1854, Thoreau ponders the problems that result from materialism and preaches simplicity as a viable alternative, exhorting people from all walks of life including himself to reexamine their misplaced priorities and discover the things that are most important. Thoreau wrote prolifically about history, nature, and society, and every generation finds its own touchstones in his work. His writings about politics and civil disobedience influenced Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr., he has come to be seen as a founding figure in the environmental movement, and scientists have praised his observations about nature for anticipating ecology and other sciences.

Review: To honor Thoreau's bicentennial, I wanted to have the special Forever Stamps that were produced. My local post offices did not have them, so when I checked via desertcart, I was pleased to be able to buy them. These notable stamps are being used on cards and hand-written notes I send to family and friends. Special!
Review: I got my stamps in perfect condition for my collection.
