Walks of Life 
your Journey back to nature

Walks of Life empowers the reader with the tools and inspiration to take the leap back to nature. It reaches out to everyone who might not be wholly civilized, to those whose dispositions include some cast of the romantic and adventurous, who might consider trading the sweet air of forest and desert for that of the city, the melodies of birds for sounds of traffic, the campfire for a computer screen, the stars for a ceiling. It is for those who wish to experience mountains as art, canyons as music, deserts as poetry—not worthless real estate. It has everything needed for those aspiring to go beyond the day hike stage and put together their own adventures instead of purchasing them. Walks of Life is crafted to inspire a thirst for the wild and motivation to walk in its wonder. It is full of humor, stories of exploration, and practical instruction, while every page rings in a celebration of natural history.
