The Old Ways: A Journey on Foot

Robert Macfarlane. Macfarlane returns with another masterful, poetic travel narrative. The author's latest, focusing broadly on the concept of walking, forms what he calls "a loose trilogy," with his two earlier books, Mountains of the Mind and The Wild Places, "about landscape and the human heart." A breathtaking study of "walking as enabling sight and thought rather than encouraging retreat and escape."--Kirkus
