"Following his return to America after twenty years in Britain, Bryson decided to reacquaint himself with his native country by walking the 2,100 mile Appalachian Trail, which stretches from Springer Mountain in Georgia to Mount Katahdin in Maine. The AT, as it's affectionately known to thousands of hikers, offers an astonishing landscape of silent forests and sparkling lakes--and to a writer with the comic genious of Bill Bryson, it also provides endless opportunities to test his own powers of ineptitued, and to witness the majestic silliness of his fellow human beings."
