Virtual Book Club: A Walk in the Woods

For July 16’s virtual book club, we will be reading and discussing A Walk in the Woods: Rediscovering America on the Appalachian Trail by Bill Bryson.

“Written in a comic style,” explains Wikipedia, “the book mixes accounts of Bryson's walk with broader discussions about the Trail's history, and the sociology, ecology, conservation status and people of the places Bryson walked through.” This book has long been praised for being rather funny and educational at the same time.
