Thoreau's longer works in one volume: A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers, Walden, The Maine Woods, and Cape Cod. All demonstrate his subtle interweaving of natural observation, personal experience, and historical lore. A Week and Walden are seminal works of American literature. The Maine Woods and Cape Cod are valuable portraits of landscapes that were changing irreversibly even as he wrote.
