PRINTER FRIENDLY VERSION
Without walking, writes Walser in this classic ode, "I would be dead. Because it is on walks that the lore of nature and the lore of the country are revealed, charming and graceful, to the sense and eyes of the observant walker." Originally appearing in English in a very different version in 1957, this new translation by Bernofsky includes an introduction explaining the history of the Walk and its many revisions.
