Walking (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162716190)

Walking by Henry David Thoreau is a collection of essays that explores the author's philosophy on the act of walking. Thoreau believed that walking was a way to connect with nature and to find inner peace. He wrote about his experiences walking in the woods, along the shore, and in the mountains, and he discussed the benefits of walking for both physical and mental health. Thoreau also delved into the spiritual aspects of walking, arguing that it was a way to connect with the divine and to find a deeper understanding of oneself. Throughout the book, Thoreau's writing is poetic and contemplative, encouraging readers to slow down and appreciate the world around them. Walking is a timeless classic that continues to inspire readers to this day.Nowadays almost all man's improvements, so called, as the building of houses and the cutting down of the forest and of all large trees, simply deform the landscape, and make it more and more tame and cheap.
