Ebook About
In 1933, the eighteen year old Patrick Leigh Fermor set out in a pair of hobnailed boots to chance and charm his way across Europe, like a tramp, a pilgrim or a wandering scholar. The books he later wrote about this walk, A Time of Gifts, Between the Woods and the Water, and the posthumous The Broken Road are a half-remembered, half-reimagined journey through cultures now extinct, landscapes irrevocably altered by the traumas of the twentieth century. Aged eighteen, Nick Hunt read A Time of Gifts and dreamed of following in Fermor's footsteps.In 2011 he began his own great trudge - on foot all the way to Istanbul. He walked across Europe through eight countries, following two major rivers and crossing three mountain ranges. Using Fermor's books as his only travel guide, he trekked some 2,500 miles through Holland, Germany, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria and Turkey. His aim? To have an old-fashioned adventure. To slow down and linger in a world where we pass by so much, so fast. To discover for himself what remained of hospitality, kindness to strangers, freedom, wildness, adventure, the mysterious, the unknown, the deeper currents of myth and story that still flow beneath Europe's surface.

Book Walking the Woods and the Water: In Patrick Leigh Fermor's Footsteps from the Hook of Holland to the Golden Horn Review :



Having done a version of this kind of travelling in the 1970s and at about the same age, I have always loved Fermor's series of books on his trip, even though they were written after the fact - long after, for the most part. It's a fascinating window into a specific time in a world that has for the most part disappeared (although not quite entirely, even now). For me, this is the best of the series, but they're all enjoyable.
Let's start by saying that 5 stars is perfect and this book is not that. But compelling, interesting, fascinating, utterly enjoyable it is. If you know the Paddy Fermor trilogy the enjoyment level is raised even more, but that knowledge is not absolutely essential. Nick Hunt's book stands on its own. He is a man of our time and, while PLF's reflections on history, culture, ancient personalities and so on, are wonderful and erudite, Nick has a different agenda. He wants to compare the changes that have taken place in the 80 years between their journeys. He is out to discover if the little communities of Paddy's time still exist, whether any of what Paddy describes still stands. Suffice to say that Communism, the second world war and various uprisings have changed the 8 countries Nick walks through immeasurably. Three seasons, 2500 miles, many encounters and alcoholic beverages later - all on one pair of boots, I might add. Why he doesn't replace them I'm not sure - this journey will leave you sorry that it ended.
