'Walking' is a lecture which was first published in 1862 as an essay in the Atlantic Monthly after the death of Henry David Thoreau- the naturalist, philosopher, and author of classics such as 'Walden' and 'Civil Disobedience'. He contributed a number of writings to 'The Atlantic' in its early years. This was first delivered at the Concord Lyceum on April 23, 1851. It was written between 1851 and 1860, but parts were extracted from his earlier journals. Thoreau read the piece a total of ten times, more than any other of his lectures. This is one of his most famous essays, which extolled the virtues of immersing oneself in nature and lamented the inevitable encroachment of private ownership upon the wilderness.
