Books are the treasured wealth of the world and the fit inheritance of generations and nations.
The Library Walk, is a venture launched in 1996 by the New York Public Library, Grand Central Partnership and New Yorker Magazine, in which are embedded in bronze plaques quotes from well-known books, or those dealing with books and literature. The panels designed by artist Gregg LeFevre were laid in 1998 from the New York Public Library building along 41st Street.
The plaque contains a quote from the book of the American poet and philosopher Henry David Thoreau - Walden or Life in the Woods, a book in which he describes a period of more than two years in which he lived in nature.
Thoreau is also mentioned in another plaque in the same series, in which a quote from the play "The Night Thoreau Spent in Jail" appears Click for sign's details
