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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The tramp is a friend of society; a seeker, they pay their way if they can. One includes in the category 'tramp' all true Bohemians, pilgrims, explorers afoot, walking tourists, and the like. Tramping is a way of approach, to nature, to your fellow man, to a nation, to beauty, to life itself. It is a gentle art and there is much to learn; illusions to overcome, prejudices and habits to be shaken off.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe adventure is not the getting there, it is the on-the-way. It is not the expected; it is the surprise; not the fulfilment of prophecy but the providence of something better than prophesied.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOriginally published in 1926, The Gentle Art of Tramping is a guide for anyone who has dreamed of taking to the road with nothing more than a bag full of essentials and big ideas. It gives guidance on walking, being open to discovery and being kind - advice as relevant now as it was then.","brand":"Gr4aham, Stephen \u0026 Humphreys, Alastair","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":49880132583763,"sku":"9781448217243","price":16.25,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/4001\/6057\/files\/gr4aham-stephen-humphreys-alastair-stephen-gr4aham-the-gentle-art-of-tramping-2019-hardback-9781448217243-60260492312915.jpg?v=1733117519","url":"https:\/\/keatsandchapman.info\/products\/stephen-gr4aham-the-gentle-art-of-tramping-2019-hardback","provider":"Chapters Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
