Title: A Great Disappointment
Product review: As one who lived at the base of the Appalachian Trail in Pennsylvania, I was delighted to receive this book as a gift for Christmas. And then when I read that Bryson "comes off as equal parts Garrison Keillor, ...and Dave Barry," I was even more anxious to read the book. But what a disappointment. I laughed aloud maybe half a dozen times throughout the whole book, and found myself down-right bored for much of it. I was appalled that Bryson undertook to write a book about walking the Trail when he accomplished less than 40%.
