The Philosophy of Emerson
A Conversation between Ernest Holmes and Ralph Waldo Emerson
by Ernest Holmes
with new foreword by Mitch Horowitz

At its heart, The Philosophy of Emerson is a conversation between two great American thinkers—Transcendentalist essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson and New Thought leader Ernest Holmes.

Early in his career, inspired by the writings of Ralph Waldo Emerson, Ernest Holmes wrote a collection of responses to Emerson’s essays “History” and “Spiritual Laws.” Through intensive research, Holmes’ hand-written notes have been integrated into the Essays themselves, resulting in a powerful book that not only connects the Transcendental ideas of Emerson to the spiritual philosophy of Ernest Holmes, but also offers an enlightening perspective into the minds of these two compelling philosophers.

Mitch Horowitz is a writer, speaker, and publisher with a lifelong interest in man’s search for meaning. He is the PEN Award-winning author of Occult America (Bantam) andOne Simple Idea: How Positive Thinking Reshaped Modern Life (Crown).
