I'm no expert, but I'd say yes and no. It yields a lot of info, but there are probably better, more informative and accurate sources out there to teach you what to do and how to do it. Walden is more of a poetic, and to some extent philosophical, exercise than an instruction manual. Besides all of this, the book is comfy as fuck. I listen to it on my "hearing aid" where I work.

Supposedly the book is partly bullshit, so I wouldn't put too much faith in it. Then again, you shouldn't put too much faith in any book; fiction at least has the dignity to clarify itself as having not happened but being true nonetheless.

Either way, if you're anything like me, you'll find yourself engaged whether or not you end up agreeing with the observations the book makes. Some are lasting impressions, some aren't, but it's more than worth a read, so I say go for it.

Walden is nice but the author was never really into 'the lifestyle'. I don't know of anyone to suggest but...You might enjoy this channel. The woman lives in rural China and uploads these videos to some Chinese platform, I think this channel is fan-run, not her reuploading. They're a bit more cinematic than natural or instructional, but still enjoyable and not faked or anything.

I didn't like the Hornblower series that much and only read two of the nooks, however I would recommend Alexander Kent's Richard Bolitho series

You can start with To Glory We Steer
