opens with a team of paleoanthropologists examining the bones of a recently
discovered 3.2 million year-old hominid they have named Lucy and moves to
peripatetic lectures of the Greeks to modern tourism - from labyrinths to
treadmills, from 19th century mountaineering to the ancient Hajj, from Dr. King's
civil rights marches to the AIDS Walk and ultimately, to Las Vegas, Solnit's
symbol of a post-Walking America. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
