What to expect
First published in 1926, The Gentle Art of Tramping is as relevant now as then. Tramping is an approach: to nature, to humankind, to nations, to beauty, to life itself. This lost classic is a breath of fresh air for world-weary souls.
It is a gentle art; know how to tramp and you know how to live. Know how to meet your fellow wanderer, how to be passive to the beauty of nature and how to be active to its wildness and its rigour.
The adventure is not the getting there, it’s the ‘on-the-way’. It is not the expected, it is the surprise.
Critics Review
-
An absolute gem of a book
Microadventures, Local Adventures for Great Escapes -
A hymn to the wilderness of the the British Isles
The Wild Places -
A wonderful book, so many of its points as valid now as they were a hundred years ago. A great catalyst for getting people off their backsides and out into wild places, with its can-do attitude … The pages of my copy are so dog-eared from turning down the corners to mark yet another quotable gem that I can hardly close it.
The January Man: A Year of Walking Britain -
Beware this book, it’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing – a thrillingly subversive life philosophy dressed in alluring practical advice. Strongly recommended for rebels and the restless
The Natural Navigator -
The Gentle Art of Tramping is Mr. Graham’s masterpiece
