Wanderers: A History of Women Walking

Walking is a human instinct, but for a long time, it was not easy for women to travel unaccompanied and unencumbered, exploring the world they were born and raised in. However, some women have broken free from their constraints, stepped out of their homes, and enjoyed the joy of walking in the world.
From the erudite Elizabeth Carter to the resilient Cheryl Strayed, from Dorothy Wordsworth wandering the mountains to Anaïs Nin and Virginia Woolf roaming the city... through their travels, some of them regained their health, some gained creative inspiration, and some even emerged from dire marriages and escaped the cramped living conditions...
In this three-hundred-year history of women's walking, no matter how far they walked or how long they walked, their forward-moving figures will always inspire all women who can walk. Even if the future is uncertain, even if people ridicule them, they will continue to walk, as they have always done, without stopping.
