A book of great people not true people. May 2, 1999 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book is great for those who want the taste of the appalachian trail and what it has to offer but does not bring the at to your house so you can feel it. When I read this book I never did feel him walking the trail. I do respect him for walking the trail but the format of this book does not walk the trail it explains it. He speaks of the super hikers not the average hikers like myself. I can't hike the trail in 50 days. I did not walk the trail blind. I experienced it. I stopped and smelled the wildflowers bloom with the fresh mountain dew. Thats the trail.
This book started it all for me. Great book! January 1, 1999 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I just couldn't put this book down. Before I'd even finished the book, I decided that I was going to hike the Appalachian Trail. It covers all aspects of "thruhiking" the AT, not just facts but the feel. In August, I finished my thruhike and still feel that Luxenberg's book is right-on. If you love hiking and adventure, this book will give you future dreams.
Great book!! This one turned me into a hiker. September 23, 1998 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This was the first book I read about hiking the Appalachian Trail, and I was entirely transformed by it. I have bought and read thirteen books on the subject since (but found none quite as enticing), and I have now hiked several sections of the trail. My longest has been a 75-mile stretch. Hopefully, I will one day become a thru-hiker.
This book is an attempt to cover the history of the AT July 1, 1998 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The book provides the reader with an overview of the historical aspects of the trail. The reader is introduced to the early politics of the trail, and the feats of its more colorful "thru hickers". The book does lack the personal flavor and overall adventure aspect of many other publications.
