The premise: two old friends who haven’t seen each other in years decide to hike the Appalachian Trail together.
This book is a memoire of his hike along the Appalachian Trail, the oldest hiking trail in America, going from Springer Mountain in Georgia to Mount Katahdin in Maine. Bill Bryson has written many books on a series of topics and this was my first time reading him, but definitely not my last. Two things haven’t changed since then: we love nature and we’re scared out of our wits of it. “You are aware, of course, that somewhere over the horizon there are mighty cities, busy factories, crowded freeways, but here in this part of the country, where woods drape the landscape for as far as the eye can see, the forest rules.”Ī Walk in the Woods: Rediscovering America on the Appalachian Trail was first published in 1997.
