About “Walking”

"Walking" is a lecture by Henry David Thoreau that was first delivered at the Concord Lyceum on April 23, 1851. The text was written between 1851 and 1860, with some parts taken from his earlier journals. Thoreau gave the lecture ten times, more than any other of his talks. The essay was published in the Atlantic Monthly in 1862, after Thoreau's death. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
