"The descriptions of life on the trail are so real you can see yourself there. And you will find yourself laughing out loud at some of the things that happen with these two adventurers. I used to think I wanted to hike the trail, but am content to let these two do the hiking for me."
"This is Bill Bryson's description of his walk with a friend along parts of the Appalachian trail. The trail is 2,000 miles long but he only walks part of it. It is an enjoyable story of his wildness experience mixed with salient facts about the poor management of the trail and details of the other walkers he meets. Funny."
"i always tell people that they will either love this (and most of his other) books to death, or that they will find them utterly unamusing. i find them hilarious. i have never laughed so hard while reading a book as with Bryson's books. Give it a go--you'll know after the first few chapters whether you share his witty, tasteful sense of humor or not:)"
"Our Radio Reading Service for the blind used this book for part of our regional programming. Bryson presentsa vivid and varied experience for our listeners. We meet the characters he encounters, we share his daily excitement, fear, boredom, and sense of wonder that he finds in the beauty and solitude of the woods. He also manages to slip in a lot of important environmental, social, and scientific information demonstrating the rarety and the value of being able to take such a trek as his. It was thoroughly engaging, and I was sorry to see it come to an end."
