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.

評分这书现在正在乱翻。西弗吉尼亚属于阿巴拉契亚山系地区,而这本《林中漫步》的作者就是一个阿巴拉契亚山系山路上的远行者。我在翻译《老谋深算》的时候发现,北美大地上有很多汽车前时代的牛马运输通道,比如著名的圣达菲大通道。另外也有一些供远足者步行的Trail, 而这阿巴拉...

評分真正的旅行是修行 这是在图书馆随手翻到的书,不是书名有趣,而是封面上对于阿巴拉契亚小道的介绍,无端的使我想起电影《朝圣之路》(那条路在西班牙的圣地亚哥,一个父亲为了完成儿子的徒步朝圣的愿望,找回自我和亲情的故事),想来一定有比电影更真实的体验,加上评论说,作...
評分Funny as always. "Short of doing it yourself, the best way of escaping into nature is to a read a book like A Walk in the Woods." - New York Times. That about sums up why I enjoy reading it.
