Summary: Disappointed
Review: I was disappointed with this book. It was very artsy and flowery. I didn't feel that the author gave a good feel of hiking the AT.

Summary: This is a wonderfully simple story.....
Review: When I was 15, my dream was to hike the Appalachain Trail. I grew up in Maine, about 4 hours south of Mt. Katahdin. For Christmas of that year, my mother gave me this book. Christmas afternoon I started reading it and couldn't put it down. Since then I have re-read it about 100 times. It is a book of reference for me; a book that helps me reconnect with my dreams. I wrote a letter to Cindy Ross that year to let her know how touching her book was for me. About a month after I sent the letter I got a card from her, handwritten with a sketch of Mt. Katahdin on the front, which she had drawn. She was so nice to me and even signed my books when I mailed them to her. This is a wonderfully simple story of friendship, nature, looking within yourself for strength, and following your dreams.
