Title: Not funny - just negative
Product review: I have trudged through about 170 pages of this book, on the recommendation of my wife, who enjoyed it. I certainly hope I never have to share a trail shelter with someone this negative. Everyone is stupid, from Stonewall Jackson to the people he meets in his travels. Everything is worse than it was a year, a decade or a millenium ago. He talks environmentalism, yet shows no concern when he or his partner leave trash along the trail.I understand that some of this is meant to be satire, but I have found something funny perhaps three times. Yes, I laughed out loud once, but mostly I was annoyed.I certainly bear Bryson no grudge for not doing all of the trail. I hope he doesn't mind that I won't finish the book.
