I've a few days email on this list to catch up on so I'm sure you've got 
the answer to the book but I think I'll have a guess anyhow. Can't spell 
the name or give you the correct title of the book but you might know 
what I mean.

The book is called either "Walden" or "Walden pond"? and it was written 
by Theareau? Does that make any sense? Good book if it's the one I think 
it is.
