This (audiobook) is just wonderful. If you are a nature lover and have any interest in hiking and the great outdoors you will probably like this one. Enfolds a dream of hiking the AT with humor, interesting facts and even history. Well written and fun to listen to. There was a lot more to this one than I expected because there is so much more to this than just his own story. There is a lot of interesting information about the AT, it's flora and fauna and the impact that humans have had on it. You get a little history and hear about some crime. Adventurous and easy to love, easy to laugh with. Also plenty off offbeat characters to laugh at. I usually prefer books by women but this one was a wonderful surprise.

This book makes me want to put on some good walking shoes and hit the trails for an adventure (with a big knife, just in case :)
