Title: Bryson tackles his biggest hike
Product review: This is a funny, informative and even poignant book. I think In a Sunburned Country is funnier, because he doesn't spare the hilarious excess in describing Australia and its inhabitants; he treats his fellow countrymen far more gently. His hiker friend Katz is just plain wonderful, a cream-soda-loving everyman facing the American wilderness. Really delightful.As usual, Bryson's book has a bibliography -- he's been reading up on the AT -- and you will learn lots about the AT and its flora and fauna, and even political history.I'm sad now that I finished the book. I'm looking forward to my next Bryson work.
