《步行者日记》内容简介
1981年，夏天，波士顿新英格兰浸信会医院。由于疼痛难耐，我连续注射五剂吗啡，并随后写下两个梦想：考上哈佛法学院、步行穿越美国。医生告诉我，“你只上过9年学，还要在轮椅上度过下半生，这些梦想太遥远，肯定是吗啡用多了……”
1997年7月4日早上6点，我站在哈佛法学院大门口，开始了自己的第二个梦想！
摆在我面前的，将是一场历时四个多月，超过8000公里的未知之旅！一路之上，我要步行穿过21个州，1000多座城市，在这137天的步行旅行中，我将历经酷热、蚊虫、飓风、暴雨，以及无边的寂寞！我不知道，这场旁人看来如地狱般的旅行，将会怎样改变我的人生……

A brief introduction to the Walker Diaries
Summer of 1981, New England Baptist Hospital, Boston. In unbearable pain, I took five doses of morphine and wrote down two dreams: going to Harvard Law School and walking across the United States. The doctor told me, "You only went to school for nine years, you will spend the rest of your life in a wheelchair, these dreams are too far away, must be too much morphine..."
At 6 a.m. on July 4, 1997, I stood at the gate of Harvard Law School and began my second dream!
In front of me, will be a more than four months, more than 8000 kilometers of unknown journey! Along the way, I will walk through 21 states, more than 1,000 cities, in 137 days of walking through heat, mosquitoes, hurricanes, rain, and endless loneliness! I had no idea how this hellish journey would change my life...
