He walked away from his own farm just to see who he might meet on the open road. David Grayson tramps the countryside as a cheerful vagabond, gathering encounters and small wisdom along the way. Warm, unhurried, and quietly happy, it is a tonic for anyone weary of hurry. Take to the friendly road and slow your step.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
