This is a thought provoking classic with just as much relevance today as it did then.

Truth and problems same struggles today.

This was a suggestion on my high school summer reading list. Do they even have summer reading lists anymore? It took me awhile to get around to it you might say. I’m 75 now. Well worth your time. Thank you Audible Books.

Alacrity standing government power of the individual

I like the way he separates the machine of government from the power of the individual.

Go Henry!

Great message. This is important information in our day and age of unjust and immoral laws.

Fantastic

This essay isn't just a great look into the mind of an influential historic figure, but a great reference to drawing similarities to current events. Thoreau truly is one of the great minds of history.

This is great!

Disobey when necessary! Give fascists hell! This is my whole entire review of this book!

Great, quick listen.

Inspiring words to consider. Will be looking for similar works and would highly recommend to others.

well read, appropriate rage,

Gets to the essence of our right to listen to our conscience and to follow our conscience with disobedience when necessary.

A great beginning treatise on libertarianism

Thoreau puts forth a great intro to the non aggression principle and to libertarianism in general. I love the parts about not just voting but putting your whole self to that cause.

Wow

What an amazing and powerful essay on living as an individual and having a duty to resist an unjust govt. very relevant to today’s current political climate. This is coming from a middle man who has long voted conservative but is now seeing how unjust a govt can be.
