My Satchel and I: Or Literature on Foot is a memoir written by George S. Stebbins and published in 1873. The book is a collection of essays and observations from Stebbins' travels throughout the United States, particularly in New England, where he walked from town to town with only a satchel on his back. Stebbins shares his experiences and encounters with various people, landscapes, and places, and reflects on the importance of literature and nature in his life. He discusses his love for the works of Shakespeare, Thoreau, and Emerson, and how they have influenced his perspective on the world.The book also touches on the social and political issues of the time, including slavery and the Civil War. Stebbins offers his opinions on these topics and their impact on American society.Overall, My Satchel and I is a charming and insightful account of one man's journey through life, literature, and the American landscape. It is a must-read for anyone interested in travel writing, American history, and the power of literature to shape our lives.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
