Few places in the United States offer a wealth of history, literature, anthropological clues, and examples of Early American architecture along a one-mile stroll. Concord’s American Mile invites you to enjoy the great outdoors while learning about the town’s fascinating history. Begin your adventure at Monument Square and head east along Lexington Road.
Join the editors and essayists of Thoreau & Philosophy for a conversation exploring Thoreau as one of America's most profound philosophical thinkers. Beyond his literary and naturalist legacy, Thoreau’s work engages philosophical questions that remain deeply relevant today, shaping conversations about ethics, freedom, society, and the environment. Together, the panelists share how situating Thoreau in a philosophical context allows one to more fully appreciate the depth of his thought.
