Of Walks and Walking Tours: An Attempt to find a Philosophy and a Creed by Arnold Haultain is a reflective exploration of the art and philosophy of walking. Haultain delves into the essence of walking as a meditative and philosophical practice, emphasizing the importance of walking without a specific aim or destination. He argues that the true joy of walking lies in the freedom it offers, allowing the mind to wander and absorb the beauty of nature. The book is rich with personal anecdotes from Haultain's own walking experiences across various landscapes, including the serene English countryside, the vibrant and diverse terrains of Canada, and the mystic allure of India. Haultain reflects on the spiritual and emotional connections that walking fosters, suggesting that it is a means to engage with the larger cosmos and the unity of all things. He draws on historical and literary figures who were known for their love of walking, such as Wordsworth and Thoreau, to illustrate the profound effect that walking has had on human thought and creativity. The narrative is interspersed with philosophical musings on the interconnectedness of life and nature, proposing that walking is not just a physical activity but a spiritual journey that enhances one's understanding of the world and oneself. Haultain's work is a celebration of the simple yet profound act of walking, advocating for its role in achieving mental clarity, emotional balance, and a deeper appreciation of the natural world.
