About This Novel
"A Thousand Mile Walk to the Gulf of Mexico" records what John Muir, the "Father of National Parks" in the United States, saw and heard on his way to the Gulf of Mexico and his reflections on nature. He set out from Kentucky alone, passed through Tennessee, Georgia, Florida, passed through the southern United States that had just experienced the Civil War, and reached the Gulf of Mexico. Muir originally planned to head further south from Cuba, but due to health reasons, he had to change his route and take a boat back to California. With only a simple backpack, a plant flattener, and "The Poems of Burns", "New Testament", "Paradise Lost" and "Thousand-Mile Walk to the Gulf of Mexico", he embarked on a thousand-mile hike around the southern United States to the Gulf of Mexico.
