Boston Atlas (10 August 1854): p. 2

            

This is one of the most remarkable publications of the day, and one that will not fail to be read with mingled interest and pleasure, by all who find a charm in life-sketches of solitary and rural life. Its author is well known as one of our most eccentric and original writers and thinkers, and Walden abounds in exquisite sketches and many fine thoughts.
