Duncan Minshull has published two previous books on walking. While Wandering (Random House) and The Burning Leg (Hesperus Press), and written about the subject for a variety of newspapers and magazines including The Times, Financial Times, the Daily Telegraph, Conde Nast Traveller and The Lady.
'Here is a book as certain to lift the spirits as the activity to which it is dedicated: going for a walk. Duncan Minshull is fast emerging as the laureate of walking.' - Andrew Martin, Country Life; ‘This anthology gathers 36 testimonies to walking’s invigorating literary power in particular. Writers from Petrarch to Franz Kafka to Will Self have recorded their enthusiasm for “ambling, rambling, tramping, trekking, stomping and striding.” Higher-quality endorsements of the creative value of walking than these would be hard to find.’ – The Atlantic
