A Walk in the Woods
by Bill Bryson

Following his return to America after twenty years in Britain, Bill Bryson decided to reacquaint himself with his native country by walking the 2,100 mile Appalachian Trail that stretches from Springer Mountain in Georgia to Mount Katahdin in Maine. The AT offers an astonishing landscape of silent forests and shimmering lakes and provides ample opportunity for Bryson to test his own powers of ineptitude and witness the majestic silliness of his fellow human beings. More than just a laugh out loud hike, A Walk in the Woods is Bryson's account of this fragile and beautiful trail, and its fascinating history.

"Bill Bryson is an extremely funny man; the Appalachian Trail is an exceedingly magnificent place; and together they have created an exceedingly fine book. Also, it weighs less than a pound, which is important if you're packing for a long hike. "
--Bill McKibben, Author of The End of Nature
