Title: Neither a serious hike nor a serious book
Product review: So Mr. Bryson is not a serious hiker, but I thought the hiking he did was worth the effort. So Mr. Bryson is not a biologist, but reading the middle portion of the book dealing with his understanding of the biology of the Appalachian Trail motivated me to pull out some of my college biology texts.The only thing at which Mr. Bryson is an expert is writing, and this book is a very funny, easy read. The message for me in this book is that if you aren't able to walk the entire trail, you might find that what you are able to accomplish contains its own rewards.Many pages of this book are so funny you will laugh out loud. I recommend this book to anyone who may be thinking about hiking the AT.
