That all who received THOREAU AND THE ART OF LIFE: PRECEPTS AND PRINCIPLES from me for Christmas have said it is one they treasure is not surprising. Every page is enhanced by MacIver's watercolors, all as stunning as those on the cover. Furthermore, because the excerpts from Thoreau's works are arranged thematically, it easy to revisit the author and relish his insights when one has a minute or twenty to spare. FYI: To see many more examples of MacIver's watercolors, go to the site of the nonprofit organization he established in 1995 for the protection of wilderness: www.herondance.org/Book-Excerpts-C49.aspx
