A review by kulaaid
Awol on the Appalachian Trail by David Miller

adventurous challenging hopeful inspiring medium-paced

4.0

20 years after AWOL (David Miller) hiked the AT, this book makes me want to hike the Appalachian Trial even more. 

AWOL starts his journey like many AT hikers in Georgia doing a Northbound to Maine to end on Katahdin, and we get to walk with him the whole way. 

There are days of pain, of boredom, of struggle, but throughout it all, the author reminds the reader that these things are no reason to stop and nor find joy in the simple aspects of walking. 

I recommend this book to anyone who wants to read about the trials, tribulations, and triumphs of through hiking, but also those that are looking to see what a real adventure is, and how every day people too can experience it.
