I was hoping to read an adventure on the Appalachian Trail and through hiking this trail is on my bucket list. Instead this book is more about the ramblings of an articulate author on the history of how small town America has changed into something the author somewhat despises. He sees a romantic version of America from the time when the Appalachian Trail was formed as a much superior time in history than what we've become, according to him. A bit disappointing for me but some interesting ramblings occasionally.
