Straggle : adventures in walking while female / Tanis MacDonald. by MacDonald, Tanis. Wolsak and Wynn Publishers, 2022. Call #: 796.51082 M135s Subjects MacDonald, Tanis.   Walking -- Psychological aspects.   Women hikers. ISBN:  9781989496534 (pbk) Description:  216 p. ; 22 cm. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references. Summary:  "In this wide-ranging collection of essays Tanis MacDonald walks the reader down many paths, pointing out the sights, exclaiming over birds, sharing stories and asking questions about just who gets to walk freely through our cities, parks and wilderness. Deer move mysteriously through these essays, knowing just when they vanish from sight, as do predators, both human and animal. She walks to begin to understand the place she now calls home in Southern Ontario, catalogues the fauna around her in FaunaWatch and continues walking through illness. From a child spotting a snowy owl on her way to school in Winnipeg, to a young woman watching her own distinctive walk be imitated in an acting class, to a worried daughter helping her mother relearn how to walk after a bad fall on a busy road, MacDonald shares how walking has shaped her life and the lives of many others. Wry, smart, political and lyrical, these essays share the joy of walking as well its danger and uncovers the promise it offers - of healing, of companionship and of understanding."--Publisher.
