An extraordinary personal testament to the life and times of one of America's great naturalists and literary figures — less a biography than an essay in defense of Thoreau by one of his closest friends. This moving, sensitive and charmingly written remembrance offers valuable insights into the life of a remarkable man.

(First published in 1907, Life and Letters of Charles Russ...)
First published in 1907, Life and Letters of Charles Russell Lowell presents the biography and collected correspondence of the nephew of poet and abolitionist leader James Russell Lowell. The volume spans both the younger Lowell's collegiate education and his military service in the American Civil War. A native Bostonian, Charles Russell Lowell (1835-1864) was first in the Harvard class of 1854. He joined the Union ranks a fervent abolitionist and fought with near-reckless zeal until his death in battle at Cedar Creek, Virginia, in October 1864. Lowell served on Gen. George B. McClellan's staff in 1862, fought John S. Mosby's Confederate raiders in 1863 and 1864, and participated in the 1864 Shenandoah Valley campaign as cavalry brigade commander. This first paperback edition of Lowell's biography and correspondence is supplemented by an introduction by Joan Waugh in which she investigates the connection between Lowell's values and actions. Her examination of the inherent sense of duty demonstrated by Lowell, his family, and fellows offers a distinctively Boston Brahmin answer to why young men of the North and South took up arms and went to war.

Edward Waldo Emerson he fourth and youngest child of Ralph Waldo Emerson and his second wife, Lydia Jackson, was born, lived, and died in Concord, Mass. In boyhood he accompanied Henry Thoreau on many an excursion and learned to observe nature with something of his friend’s exactness, though never with his passionate absorption. Frail health and an undersized body prevented him from enlisting in the Union army.
He graduated from Harvard College in 1866 and from the Medical School in 1874.
In boyhood he accompanied Henry Thoreau on many an excursion and learned to observe nature with something of his friend’s exactness, though never with his passionate absorption.
Gentleness, his major trait, carries over into his writing and constitutes his charm, and perhaps occasionally his defect, as a memoirist.
Emerson in Concord (1889; first printed in Memoirs of the Members of the Social Circle in Concord, 2 ser. , 1888), was his first book and is the most delightful and the most intimate of all books on Emerson.
These laborious tasks he performed with admirable fidelity and tact.
He published several poems privately, did some magazine work, and issued the Life and Letters of Charles Russell Lowell (1907) and, in collaboration with Moor- field Storey, Ebenezer Rockwood Hoar (1911).
Two memorable volumes, Henry Thoreau as Remembered by a Young Friend (1917) and the Early Years of the Saturday Club (1918), brought his literary career to a close.
He also enjoyed local fame as a painter and for several years was an instructor at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts.
