A dog-friendly walking guide to Anne Arundel County’s overlooked landscapes

Built from newspaper columns, this guide gathers 52 walks in and around Anne Arundel County, within easy reach of Annapolis. Its routes range across forests, bayside beaches, and riverside trails, with attention to places that may be little known even locally. Alongside practical interest in walking with dogs and companions, Holland brings together natural history and regional cultural heritage: shoreline preservation, former airport land, Annapolis’s water history, and Black Marylanders’ recreation on the Bay all appear among the subjects addressed. The book frames these outings as opportunities to notice how public landscapes hold both ecological and community histories.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Dog owners seeking walk ideas around Annapolis and Anne Arundel County
  • Local hikers interested in parks, beaches, and trails close to home
  • Walkers interested in Maryland natural history and cultural heritage

To wilderness guru John Muir, the forest was a temple, and he advised that we "saunter" through it with reverence. No hiking, thank you.

Walks Around Arundel is a collection of newspaper columns inspired by sauntering through parks in and around Anne Arundel County with a good dog and a good friend or two.

In it, you'll make twofold discoveries. First, you'll visit nearby forests, Bayside beaches and riverside trails-all in a short drive from Annapolis and many nearly forgotten gems. While reading-and sauntering-along with a dog-loving poet and storyteller, author Jefferson Holland, you'll also learn about the natural history and cultural heritage of each site.

How to best preserve shoreline for creatures who pass between water and land? What tiny state park was once a very local airport? What were the hottest spots on the Bay for Black Marylanders-so appealing that Whites integrated them? In what parks was Annapolis water once purified? Where can your dog get in the water, and you get on the water?

Holland tells you all that-and much more.
