Sobre IBD

Inspired by Henry David Thoreau’s Walden, Gene Stratton-Porter’s 1912 novel The Harvester focuses on David Langston, a young bachelor who lives in and makes his living from the swamps and forests of rural Indiana. A best-seller of the early 20th century, The Harvester combines romance and nature writing to demonstrate through David what a harmonious relationship between humans and the natural world could look like.
