Title: A Super Read! This book is good fun.
Product review: I loved reading "A Walk in the Woods." It is laugh out loud funny--and it holds up when you read excerpts to the person sitting next to you when you cracked up. Now I want to get out and walk the Appalachian Trail...but not all at once!Many folks have taken the time to write a careful synopsis of this book, so you really don't need me to write another one. Bryson successfully blends narrative and fact into a truly entertaining book. Unfortunately, a recent trip to one of the areas described in the book has revealed that at least one of his facts is already out of date: more than 95% of the Frasier firs in Smokey Mountains National Park have succumbed now to disease. It makes me wonder how the underground fire in Pennsylvania has progressed.But up to the minute accuracy isn't truly important for this book--just read it and enjoy the story.
