Did you ever feel a need to shake up your life a little? Jane Congdon did, and spent 17 weeks on the Appalachian Trail hiking with partners, alone, and with a good-luck charm, logging 1,200 miles in 7 of the 14 AT states. This is her fascinating and humorous account of journey-from bears, wild pigs, violent weather, trail town stops--and the personalities she met along the way--and how it changed her perceptions of both Mother Nature and human nature.
