I am generally bored with nature writing and travel accounts, but in this case when the nature writing is wrapped with the story of the incredible adventure of hiking the Grand Canyon, it comes alive and draws me in. The book is structured as a detailed narrative of the trip with a lot of introspection about his reactions along the way. As he settles into the rhythms of backpacking and the Canyon, his musings get more profound but never overwhelming and always nicely grounded in the gritty details of the journey and the surroundings. There are similarities with "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance," but this book doesn't jump around in time and it never turns into a philosophy lecture, which is my biggest complaint about "Zen."I also admire the writing. The author is not at the Annie Dillard level of wordsmithing, but I think his writing is much better than the average travel adventure writer can manage and the author is equally comfortable with mundane physical details and grand abstractions.I rarely read books more than once, but I've read this through closely twice in two or three years and I hope to at least dip into it again. I'm definitely more motivated to revisit the Grand Canyon, which I've visited twice but only superficially.Although Amazon calls this "unknown binding," I got a hardback when I ordered from a third-party seller. It would probably be a good idea to check with your seller before ordering. The full title includes a subtitle about "photographs by the author." The later paperback editions do not have photos and they do have updates about development threats to the Grand Canyon and the effects of damming the river. I read a paperback edition first and later bought the old hardback version. I had a hard time visualizing the landscape, and I found it comforting that the photos were reasonably close to what I had envisioned. The hardback has a larger foldout map that is much easier to read than the map in the paperback.
This is a very interesting tale of a walk through the Grand Canyon in 1963. The perspective is dated in many ways, but much of it is timeless. The hiking challenges were very interesting to me as well as his disruption of the surroundings. He lost me a little in the spiritual talk of being one with the beaver etc., but that was still interesting keeping in mind the perspective.
I discovered Fletcher in 1975 when I worked in a backpacking shop as a high school kid. I read "The New Complete Walker". It was so good that I tracked down "The Man Who Walked Through Time". The book had a huge impact on me.Fletchers writing about his solo travels is unpolluted by ego, fluff or anything else that's worthless. He brings the small but essential experiences into sharp focus with his careful descriptions. A literary critic might have a different view, but as a guy who loves to haul a pack around in lonely and beautiful places, I cant say enough about Fletchers writing.One of the aspects of this book I dearly love, is that its from a time before the big companies infected the culture of backpacking with the neurotic focus on equipment. Today, too many people focus on gear rather than the experience. Reading backpacking magazines like Outdoor...is sickening to me...its nothing but a ad rag. All hype, fashion and status. Fletcher shares what its like to simply go explore wild places on your own - with no consideration of statistics, competition or...obsession with hyped up equipment. Backpacking is a form of travel that should be inexpensive and in reach of nearly everyone...rather than the over-priced, materialistic BS that Outside and other magazines have turned it into.This is a great book - worth the price and time to read it.
One of the best journey and backpacking books of all time. I bought this years ago and it was so good that it changed my wilderness travel life. I just bought another copy so that I can loan it out more.
If you love the outdoors you will love the adventure we wish we could all go on if we were brave enough. C. Fletchers descriptions of what the Grand Canyon revealed to him on his 2 month journey are vivid enough to make you feel you are there with him.
I only wish Colin Fletcher had written more books! This one was excellent.
Most people think this book is about Fletcher's ground breaking first solo trek afoot through Grand Canyon National park in a single arduous journey. Perhaps so. But it is not a story about going from point A to point B, as might easily be surmised by the flap-crap on the cover. For those who see the world as a series of objectives, those who are satisfied with growing up, going to school, marrying, having kids, growing old, and dying, I suppose The Man Who Walked Through Time would appear as this same points A to B sort of thing. But, Fletcher says over and over throughout his writings, it isn't were you go, it's what's in between. A journey, whether through life or a canyon is not simply a beginning and an end. The vast majority of it lies in between; Start and finish are only markers. What matters is what happens to YOU along the way.Most detractors of this book fail to see this is what the book is really about. It is an example of a philosophy concerned with seeing through time—it discloses where we fit into this expanded dimension. In Fletcher's biography he said, "It's not the walking itself, it's what walking leads you to."In The Man Who Walked Through Time, we go along with this walking man as he takes you through The Canyon. But when you reach the terminus of his trek, you'll find that he took you to places far beyond Grand Canyon National Park. Not only do his great powers of description make you feel you are right there with him as he struggles through the rough, nearly waterless land, he somehow takes you through time and space. And that is a lot to get out of one book.
