A Walk in the Woods [7.54 MB]

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The classic chronicle of a “terribly misguided and terribly funny” (The Washington Post) hike of the Appalachian Trail, from the author of A Short History of Nearly Everything and The Body

“The best way of escaping into nature.”—The New York Times

Back in America after twenty years in Britain, Bill Bryson decided to reacquaint himself with his native country by walking the 2,100-mile Appalachian Trail, which stretches from Georgia to Maine. The AT offers an astonishing landscape of silent forests and sparkling lakes—and to a writer with the comic genius of Bill Bryson, it also provides endless opportunities to witness the majestic silliness of his fellow human beings.

For a start there’s the gloriously out-of-shape Stephen Katz, a buddy from Iowa along for the walk. But A Walk in the Woods is more than just a laugh-out-loud hike. Bryson’s acute eye is a wise witness to this beautiful but fragile trail, and as he tells its fascinating history, he makes a moving plea for the conservation of America’s last great wilderness. An adventure, a comedy, and a celebration, A Walk in the Woods is a modern classic of travel literature.

Nature Is Great But This Book Reeks Of Arroganceemily-wallie

There are redeeming qualities of this book. Anyone can enjoy reading and learning about nature. What bothered me most about this book is the arrogance and hypocrisy of the writer. Him and his partner actively do things that are harmful to their environment but then he tries to call out others for it? Additionally, there are a few stories he talks about that didn’t seem legit and once fact checked I learned they were not. I know he is trying to come off as funny but the way him and his buddy treat the trail and people they meet along is just obnoxious.35

Decent and interestingjmit22

First half was really interesting with some very funny parts. But the back half dragged on with a lot of facts about the AT, nature, what man has done to harm it, etc. I ended up skimming a lot of the second half.35

Very entertainingwctennisnut

Not only was this book entertaining, it is also very informative. Having lived in sev of the areas in which he speaks about, I found it all to be an honest depiction of the areas.55

Bill Bryson keeps it real…John H B.

For the Everyman who thinks or dreams about doing something completely out of the ordinary, A Walk in Woods does just that. The stories are funny and genuine, his research is meticulous and interesting. And what happens to him versus what he wanted to have happen is what would happen to most of us. Great read.45

Just can’t go wrongDGSawtell

So, Bill Bryson writes books of his travels. His wonderful humorous sarcastic opinion all along the way. This was my first and I’ve read almost everything else he wrote. Step into the world as Bill sees it. You won’t regret the step.55

Entertaining ReadPolar Z

I thoroughly enjoyed Bryson’s humor while chronicling his hike on the Appalachian trail. His descriptions and historical references make this book very interesting as well.55

Highly recommendedArthur Xing

Can’t stop till the end, and start to do it again.55

Enjoyable and funnyjillfromflorida

My favorite book of all time. I could read it again and again. After reading, I made a trip to the AT from Florida and walked a small portion in NC.55

Laugh out loud readingsparticus Norticus

The only other author who I have read who makes me laugh out loud is the late great political satirist Art Buchwald. Bill Bryson is a great storyteller. His interweaving of fact fantasy and fiction makes for truly enjoyable times. I find his and Katzs' quips to repeatedly cause bouts of gut busting laughter. Read this book near people who need cheering up. Do not read this book while drinking beverages unless you want to spray a mouthful or worse a nose full at your nearby surroundings.55
