HENRY
DAVID
THOREAU, oneof
America s most prominent environmental
writers, supported himself as a land surveyor
for much of his life, parceling land that would
be sold off to loggers. In the only study of its kind,
. . . Patrick
Chura
analyzes this seem¬
ing contradiction to show how the best
surveyor in Concord combined civil
engineering with civil disobedience.
Placing Thoreau s surveying in histor¬
ical context, Thoreau the Land Surveyor
explains the cultural and ideological
implications of surveying work in the
mid-nineteenth century.
Chura
delin¬
eates the ways that Thoreau
s
environ¬
mentalist disposition and philosophical
convictions asserted themselves even
as he reduced the land to measurable
terms and acted as an agent for bring¬
ing it under proprietary control.
He also describes in detail Thoreau s
1846
survey of
Walden Pond.
By iden¬
tifying the origins of
Walden
in
—
of
all places
—
surveying data,
Chura
re¬
creates a previously lost supporting
manuscript of this American classic.
This book remakes some of Thoreau s
boundaries
—
not the many physical
property lines he created while survey¬
ing but rather intangible markers, rem¬
nants of his life and character that have
been lost or neglected. In part, it is a
book about the recovery of history.
