The Pastoral Observations of One Ignorant American Who Loves to Walk Outside
Book • 2021
In this book, Nick Offerman takes readers on a series of journeys, including a hiking trip to Glacier National Park with friends Jeff Tweedy and George Saunders, a visit to a farm in the English countryside, and a cross-country road trip with his wife Megan Mullally during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The book is a mix of travelogue, manifesto, and personal reflections on nature, land use, labor, agriculture, and community.
Offerman shares his experiences with dry humor and a reverence for nature and physical labor, while also discussing broader themes such as conservation, outdoor recreation, and the impact of human activities on the environment.
