I remember reading "A walk in the woods" by Bill Bryson late in the 1990s and have been fascinated by 'the walk' ever since - and a huge fan of Bryson's. This coffee table book, with a forward by Bryson, provides details of the birth of the trail, it's development, maintenance and the challenges for the future. The numerous photos highlight the points of interest along the trail, the flora and fauna and provides a sense of the serenity and awe that can only come from walking in wide open spaces or along riverbanks or within primeval forests. This book was a visual feast.
