Kaldewey’s second book featuring a text by Henry David Thoreau [...]. The exceptional Sunago paper—a blend of Gampi and Kozo fibers—is nearly transparent and contains dried maple leaves.” The deluxe edition is even more intricate, featuring red autumn leaves and additional tiny specks of gold. Thoreau’s theme of the celebrated Indian Summer is perfectly complemented by this paper.

The original manuscript of Thoreau’s text is housed in the Chapin Library at Williams College in Williamstown, MA.” (75 artist books, p. 315).
