A truly good book is something as natural and as unexpectedly fair and perfect, as a wild flower discovered on the prairies of the west or in the Jungle of the east. “Walking the main theme is nature, the author is looking at nature and how nature brings selfreflection through the act of walking. The book is the best example of environmental movement. The man is not separate from nature and wildness but within it any lyrically describes the ever beckoning call that draws us to explore and find ourselves lost in the beauty of the forest, rivers and fields. The human being is not a spectator looking at nature from a city that has conquered nature, but rather influence by nature, as well as having an effect on nature.
