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. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eFor a start there’s the gloriously out-of-shape Stephen Katz, a buddy from Iowa along for the walk. But \u003ci\u003eA Walk in the Woods\u003c\/i\u003e 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, \u003ci\u003eA Walk in the Woods\u003c\/i\u003e is a modern classic of travel literature.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46301260677349,"sku":"NP9780767902526","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780767902526.jpg?v=1767720908","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/a-walk-in-the-woods-rediscovering-america-on-the-appalachian-trail-isbn-9780767902526","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
