A very entertaining read. Tales of hiking the grand canyon while nude are interspersed with good technical advice.

Even though this book was written years ago, it is chock full of good ideas for anyone who, like me, is contemplating a long-distance walk. Equipment has changed somewhat since the book was written, but the common sense ideas of training, preparation for the unexpected, and commitment are timeless.
