Zen of Wilderness and Walking (The): Wit, Wisdom, and Inspiration

A love of nature can bring together those from all walks of life, as seen in this book of inspirational quotes dedicated to the joy of wandering the wilderness. With passages from environmental stewards such as John Muir and Henry David Thoreau, writers from Shakespeare to A.A. Milne, presidents such as Jefferson, Roosevelt, Kennedy, and Carter, and modern-day celebrities such as Ellen DeGeneres, The Zen of Wilderness and Walking strives to express the emotions experienced in wild places. Adding a bit of flair, simple illustrations along the bottom of each page create an animated "flip book" depicting a hiker in action.
