Works of Henry David Thoreau. Walden, On the Duty of Civil Disobedience, Excursions, poems & more. Published by MobileReference (mobi)

Thoreau perceives citizens, who give blind loyalty to their government's decisions without questioning them, as participants in every injustice committed by that government. Whether this point of view is correct or not, it is worth debating, especially in view of the horrific injustices that are extant in today's world and the way the masses so easily accept them without considering the negative impact on others. If you are looking for a marvelous primer on individuality and the fight for justice, start with this book.

Thoreau was a great intellectual and possessed an uncommon sensitivity to the natural world. This is a very fine collection of his works.
