    (405)

    After 20 years in Britain, Bryson returned to the U.S. and decided to reacquaint himself with his native country by walking the 2,100-mile Appalachian Trail, which stretches from Georgia to Maine. This is his humorous, inspiring account.

    Jeff says: "Wonderful book, but hardly abridged"
    "A Native of the Locals"

    Story

    This book portrays the natives as ignorant, unintelligent, simple, and a backward group of people. Offensive. Not to be mocked. Not to belittle. Not to underestimate.

    Only a fool would believe himself superior due to formal education. Some knowledge is not taught in school.

    This book toots the author's own horn. The dangers in the Appalachians are real. Dramatized dangers of the author was under-rated.
