Publications

Serious scholars and general readers alike enjoy reading both the Thoreau Society Bulletin and The Concord Saunterer. In fact, that’s the dynamic that’s fueled our organization since its inception, bringing scholars and enthusiasts together to promote public understanding of Thoreau and his work in his time and in ours. Our publications have been an important source of information in helping to preserve Thoreau Country as part of our common heritage and as the embodiment of Thoreau’s landmark contributions to social, political, and environmental thought.

High School Libraries, Public Libraries, and Research Libraries can all benefit from our publications, which have been the standard of excellence in Thoreau studies since 1941.

Includes the Thoreau Society Bulletin and Concord Saunterer. No other membership privileges apply.
