My partner and I have just started to enjoy hiking. We haven't tackled anything like the Appalachian Trail, nor do we anticipate doing so anytime in the near future. Perhaps something more like the Camino to start with.
Having said that, I thoroughly enjoyed A Walk in the Woods. Bill Bryson pivots from hiking experiences, to trends and historical data, to comedic episodes with Katz, his partner, and other characters along the way. Making the whole read most enjoyable.
I found myself taking passages and rereading them to the family, and us all having a chuckle together. His portrayal of the mind of the Moose from page 241 being a great example.
I loved the book and recommend it, to all but the hardened hikers.
