Hvad handler det om, når mænd - lige før gæsterne kommer - begynder at rydde op i garagen eller klippe hæk i baghaven?

On my 23rd birthday, my father gave me an envelope which I figured would be a gift certificate for something outdoors. But to my surprise, it was an airline ticket to Atlanta! My confusion turned into huge excitement when he said, "We are going to hike the Appalachian Trail in less than 50 days. Get ready son." At first, I thought I should just write this book like a journal of what we did. But then my father suggested that I should write it like a guidebook that can help anyone from a beginner to an advanced hiker.

Like a well-crafted stage play, Just Passin' Thru delivers one suspenseful scene after another. But in this historic setting a store on the Appalachian Trail called Mountain Crossings the characters who show up are no fictional creations. Like any good drama, there are the good guys (and gals) and the weirdos, too. Some show up once (and that’s enough), and some appear again and again. But all are united by two things: the author’s story-capturing talent, and whatever it is that lures them to attempt (or conquer) a 2,200-mile path that climbs and plummets from Georgia to Maine.

"Nel corso della mia vita ho incontrato una o due persone che comprendessero l'arte del camminare, che avessero il genio - così si dice - del vagabondare."

Hver dag går forfatter Anna Skyggebjerg en tur. 10.000 skridt, mindst. Ikke fordi hun ikke kan andet. Løbe, for eksempel. Men fordi det at gå tur er en aktivitet, der rækker langt ud over blot det at sætte den ene fod foran den anden. I sin gennemresearchede bog "Gå tur" formidler Skyggebjerg, hvordan gåturen ikke blot øger vores fysiske og psykiske velbefindende og styrker vores relationer, men i sin yderste konsekvens er en revolutionær praksis. Bogen trækker på såvel ældgammel filosofi som moderne forskning, kædet sammen af gribende beskrivelser af vigtige gåture i forfatterens eget liv.

Walking upright on two feet is a uniquely human skill. It defines us as a species. It enabled us to walk out of Africa and to spread as far as Alaska and Australia. It freed our hands and freed our minds. We put one foot in front of the other without thinking - yet how many of us know how we do that, or appreciate the advantages it gives us? In this hymn to walking, neuroscientist Shane O’Mara invites us to marvel at the benefits it confers on our bodies and minds. In Praise of Walking celebrates this miraculous ability.
