This book and a frog inspired the conversion of J. W. Krutch, who wrote its “Cactus” version in Arizona. References in this book led Don Henley to preserve a hill farmed by the Black “former inhabitant” Brister Freeman. A fictional project that extrapolates this book’s “experiment” to multiple people produced imitators like Los Horcones (“or-KO-nace”), Mexico, and Twin Oaks, Virginia, and inspired a modular apartment complex by Ricardo Bofill (“boo-FEEL”). Riffing on this book’s speculative “Realometer,” Richard Primack matched climate data with its author’s records of first flowering dates for an unfinished phenology tome. A utopian novel named for this book, in which Six Planners organize T. E. Frazier’s engineered community, was written by B. F. Skinner. For 10 points, name this 1854 book about the woods around an Ice Age kettle pond by Henry David Thoreau. ■END■
ANSWER: Walden [accept Walden Pond; accept Walden Two, Walden 7, Walden Woods Project, Walden Warming, or the “Cactus Walden”] (Krutch, who wrote the “Cactus Walden” The Desert Year, embraced a pantheism that he first invoked in an essay from The Twelve Seasons about the spring peeper.)
