by D.B. Johnson It isn't how fast you get someplace, but what you do along the way: that's the philosophy behind this story, inspired by Thoreau's WALDEN, about two friends who agree to meet thirty miles away in Fitchburg. Henry elects to take a very long nature walk while his friend chooses to work to earn his train fare. A step-lively narration by James Naughton and music to hike to by Jon Carroll make this journey fun and thought provoking too.Iconographic
