Now in B-format paperback, this book describes ten women over the
past three hundred years who have found walking essential to their
sense of themselves, as people and as writers. Wanderers traces
their footsteps, from eighteenth-century parson's daughter
Elizabeth Carter - who desired nothing more than to be taken for a
vagabond in the wilds of southern England - to modern
walker-writers such as Nan Shepherd and Cheryl Strayed. For each,
walking was integral, whether it was rambling for miles across the
Highlands, like Sarah Stoddart Hazlitt, or pacing novels into
being, as Virginia Woolf did around Bloomsbury. Offering a
beguiling view of the history of walking, Wanderers guides us
through the different ways of seeing - of being - articulated by
these ten pathfinding women.
