Review

Good

  • The book is just hilarious; at least once a chapter I laughed out loud.
  • It's also very informative, not just about the trail, but also describing the successes and failures the US government has had with the National Park Service.
  • You couldn't find a better advertisement for the Appalachian Trail. It really makes you want to hike it.

Bad

  • Nothing.

Ugly

  • Nothing.
