AWOL on the Appalachian Trail by David Miller

adventurous challenging hopeful informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

4.0

AWOL on the Appalachian combines informative anecdotes with rich descriptions of the landscape and just enough self-reflection to make this a very well-rounded description of the long and arduous journey of the AT. I think I would’ve appreciated a bit more personal background for the “why” and “how” throughout the book, rather than trying to balance personal insights and being an objective narrator, but for what it is, it’s a very enjoyable read.
