'Cracknell wonderfully explores the strange durability of the paths that we make in our lives, in our dreams and after our deaths.' -- Robert Macfarlane 'Not so much a book to inspire you to do her walks, but to challenge you to enjoy your own walks more. Refreshing, lovely, fun: good walking and good writing.' -- Sara Maitland, author of From the Forest and A Book of Silence “A poignant and passionate memoir … a heartfelt exploration of the mental and physical landscapes that shape our lives.” Gavin Francis, author of Adventures in Human Being -- Gavin Francis, author of Adventures in Human Being 'Like a multicoloured tapestry, memory and imagination are beautifully evoked by the varied landscapes where Linda Cracknell walked … a joy to read.' -- Raja Shehadeh, author of Palestinian Walks: Forays into a Vanishing Landscape 'There is not a step taken in this book that does not engage the writer, and so the reader. To walk with Linda Cracknell is to explore landscape and memory … It is to be enriched by the compulsions of a lifetime.' -- Tom Pow, poet 'A winning combination of memoir, travelogue and literary meditation.' -- Daily Mail
