Unlost

A Journey of Self-Discovery and the Healing Power of the Wild Outdoors

De: Gail Muller

Narrado por: Gail Muller

"Gail writes with humour, heart and passion." (Giovanna Fletcher, Sunday Times number one best-selling author)

Includes exclusive audio commentary from Gail straight from her trail experience

Gail Muller was told she’d be in a wheelchair by the age of 40. At 41, she set out to hike one of the world’s toughest treks: the Appalachian Trail - a 2,200-mile journey that would help her reclaim her life and heal her mind and body. An inspiring, moving, and uplifting memoir for fans of Cheryl Strayed’s Wild and Elizabeth Gilbert’s Eat, Pray, Love.

As Gail took her first steps through the wilderness of the USA, she had no idea what lay ahead of her, but she knew she felt burnout from city life, lost and broken - ready to heal a mind and body that she had battled with for so long.

From the resilience-building mountain climbs, painful injuries, and harsh reality of braving the raw elements, to the unexpected friendships forged with other hikers and the kindness of strangers offering food and shelter - with every step, Gail started to let go of a past dominated by chronic pain and reconnected with herself in a way she’d never been able to before.

A love letter to the healing power of the wild outdoors and an incredible testament to the strength of the human spirit, Gail’s story is for anyone who has ever felt stuck in a rut, lost, or scared. She shows us that even in our darkest times, it’s possible to find our inner grit, face our fears, and feel hopeful.

Loved this!! it was a great read!! so real. had me crying and laughing. well worth it

Awesome!

Awesome Awesome Awesome!! Loved this inspirational book - what a great life attitude woman! Thank you for sharing this wonderful hike with us.

Just get this book

Loved this journey a lot the AT I’ve read and listened to tons of stories on the AT but the strength and courage Gail us is awe inspiring I couldn’t stop reading. It made me want to start planning my own adventure!

Mind and will over body. Ability to really change one’s life

Loved that Gail read her own book to me. She inspires one to go do anything, even when we are sure to fail. Don’t get to the end of your life before you amaze yourself!

Lovely tale of a SOBO thru hike, the pink blazing almost lost me though.

The author is also the narrator of this book which is awesome. she has the most beautiful voice and does a great job reading.

I love Appalachian Trail books and listen to them all. this is a SOBO journey. the book starts off great. Then unfortunately the main character meets a man and the next four hours or so is devoted to her chasing this mentally abusive/cheating boyfriend. I would of given this book 5 stars if it would of focused more on the trail and less in the relationship.

The book is very easy to listen to and get sucked in. however it nearly lost me a few times when the main character would not stop chasing after her love interest.

I hope to hear more from this author. Her writing style is wonderful and her voice is intoxicating.

Unique Take, Enjoyable Listen

I’ve listened and read a lot of books about the AT. This one not only hit home for personal reasons. But, just left me feeling like she let us in to every corner of her journey; both physical and emotional. Having the author read and add her on trail recordings was a bonus.

Inspiring

A great story about a string woman persevering through life's traumas out on the trail!

loved it

A great experience!

She told her story straight from her heart. Didn't pull any punches. Loved it!

Excellent Read

After reading over 20 books on hiking the AT, it was refreshing to hear her story as well as gather the info about fear, places and foods! Her life lessons are spectacular and healing.
