The Allure and Peril of the Appalachian Trail


Overview

Contrary to Bill Bryson’s popular book’s title, hiking the Appalachian Trail isn’t just ""a walk in the woods."" It is a long and strenuous hike and danger abounds for unwary hikers. For many, the risk of peril adds to the allure of the trail. In this enthralling volume, long-time hiker Steve Carpenter explores the joys of the trail and the misfortunes that have befallen hikers. Including some history of the trail, Carpenter relays encounters with wildlife, accidents on the trail, stories of sex and murder, and meetings with larger-than-life thru hikers.
