Noted American Naturalist, Winthrop Packard, who gave us such titles as “Woodland Pastures,” “Wood Wanderings,” and “Wildwood Ways,” now takes us to the haunts of New England literary luminaries such as Whittier, Alcott, and Thoreau. Birds, plants, and wildlife are noted in these sites from Walden Pond to Vermont, giving us a glimpse into the world of these poets and authors. - Summary by Larry Wilson (4 hr 32 min)
