An absolute g of a book' iAlastair HumphreysibbrbrFirst published in 1926, iThe Gentle Art of Trampingi 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.brbrIt 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.brbrThe adventure is not the getting there, it's the on-the-way. It is not the expected, it is the surprise.p
