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. Despite Katz's overwhelming desire to find cozy restaurants, he and Bryson eventually settle into their stride, and while on the trail they meet a bizarre assortment of hilarious characters. 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 destined to become a modern classic of travel literature.

评分户外旅行的佳作，处处透着睿智、幽默、犀利以及惊人的博学，从阿巴拉契亚小道延伸开去，堪称美国近代自然史的小百科。可惜翻译实在不敢恭维，语句近乎直译，生硬拗口，有些句子又长又别扭让人差点一口气提不上来，还有错别字，糟蹋了一本好书。接力出版社，望再接再厉。

评分Hiking the Appalachian Trail is one of my goals of life.
评分有这么一种写法，看着挺流畅真实，我写不出这种风格的东西，作者在我身边的话，我可能会说，你真话涝啊。
