Peck's "The Road Less Traveled" has become both a part of the popular culture and an inspirational guidebook for a generation. On the surface, this is the story of a 3-week trip through Wales, England, and Scotland that Peck took with his wife Lily -- looking for the ancient megalithic stones. But the search for stones is a search for meaning and mystery, and ultimately an unveiling of the pilgrimage of life itself. Each day of the trip he discusses a related realm of human experience -- parenthood, holiness, romance, art, etc. -- and we travel with him on an adventure of the spirit, striving to understand the journey of life in all of its complexities and secrets. Illustrated by Peck's son, Christopher.
