On Trails

In 'On Trails', Robert Moor explores the significance of trails in shaping both the physical landscape and human society. He shows us that trails aren't just about getting from point A to point B, but they also tell a story about who we are and how we interact with the world.

Moor digs into the role trails have played in evolution. From the trails created by tiny organisms to the complex networks of roads and highways we use today, he shows us how trails have evolved alongside life on Earth.

The book isn't just about the physical aspect of trails. Moor also takes a look at the philosophical side. He explores how trails can help us understand ourselves better, and how they can serve as a metaphor for life's journey.

Moor shows us that trails are all about connection. They connect us to each other, to our past, and to the natural world. By exploring trails, we can find a sense of belonging and understand our place in the world.

In 'On Trails', Moor doesn't just look at the past and present of trails. He also explores their future. As we face environmental challenges and rapid technological changes, he asks us to consider what role trails will play in our future societies.
