Don Quixote Steps

Don Quixote Steps is a pedometer that turns your daily walking into the two great sallies of Don Quixote. Every step you take moves the story forward: leave the study where a gentleman read himself into knighthood, ride out at dawn, get dubbed in a castle that is really an inn, charge the giants that are really windmills, and end the First Part the way the book ends it - in a cage, on an ox-cart, homeward. The cage is not the end. In the Second Part, the strangest adventure of all begins: the First Part has been published, and everyone you meet has read you. Unlock The Third Sally and walk the printed world - the Cave of Montesinos, Sancho's island that has no sea, the Knight of the White Moon on the beach at Barcelona, and the long road home to your own name. 44,000 steps, cover to cover.
