{"product_id":"9781910749982","title":"Beneath My Feet: Writers on Walking","description":"“Above all, do not lose your desire to walk: every day I walk myself into a state of well-being and walk away from every illness.” —Søren Kierkegaard \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDuncan Minshull has always walked and in the last twenty years has made use of it by writing and publishing books on the subject. He has described the whys, hows, and wheres of traveling on foot for various magazines and newspapers, including \u003ci\u003eThe Times \u003c\/i\u003e(London), the \u003ci\u003eFinancial Times\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eCondé Nast Traveler\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eVogue\u003c\/i\u003e. He has edited two other collections on walking: \u003ci\u003eWhile Wandering: A Walking Companion \u003c\/i\u003e(originally \u003ci\u003eThe Vintage Book of Walking\u003c\/i\u003e) and \u003ci\u003eThe Burning Leg: Walking Scenes from Classic Fiction\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWalking and writing have always gone together. Think of the poets who walk out a rhythm for their lines and the novelists who put their characters on a path. But the best insights, the deepest and most joyous examinations of this simple activity are to be found in nonfiction—in essays, travelogues, and memoirs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBeneath My Feet: Writers on Walking \u003c\/i\u003erounds up the most memorable walker-writers from the 1700s to the modern day, from country hikers to urban strollers, from the rationalists to the truly outlandish. Follow in the footsteps of William Hazlitt, George Sand, Rebecca Solnit, Will Self, and dozens of others. Keep up with them—and be astonished.","brand":"New York Review Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43085208059965,"sku":"9781910749982","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/0838\/9949\/files\/9781910749982_p0.jpg?v=1775258627","url":"https:\/\/www.tatteredcover.com\/products\/9781910749982","provider":"Tattered Cover","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
