A talk by Nick Hunt on his book “Walking the Woods and the Water”
'In 1933, 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', from the Hook of Holland to Istanbul. Seventy-eight years later, Nick Hunt followed in his footsteps. His book recounts a seven-month walk through Holland, Germany, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria and Turkey on a quest to discover what remains of hospitality, kindness to strangers, freedom, wildness, adventure and the deeper currents of myth and story that still flow beneath Europe's surface.’
