Title: Great start, but fizzled out
Product review: This book was recommended to me by a friend and fellow nature enthusiast. He was part of the way through the book when he told me how much he enjoyed it. A few weeks later I decided to buy the book for myself. I reported back to him my purchase, but it was too late. I was adamant about reading the book but did not want any details from him as to the nature of it. The first third of the book was an interesting story of the authors' experiences, but shortly after that, the book took a turn towards a more historical view of the trail. To be brief, if I wanted to learn about the history of the trail, I would have bought a history book. I gave the book the extra star because I did enjoy hearing about his journey, but at the end I was left feeling unfulfilled.
