Far Off As I Lived (1845–1847)

View through CrossRef
Abstract In January 1845, Bronson Alcott bought a house in Concord, which he would name “Hillside” (today’s “Wayside”). For three years it provided a stable home place. He had returned a year earlier from the seven-month Fruit lands experiment, where he had engaged in an abortive transcendentalist exercise in self-sufficiency in Harvard, Massachusetts. His diary for 1845 is unfortunately lost; one would like to know what reference it made to Thoreau’s Walden house, an act of settling down parallel to Alcott’s own.
