This is a great book. I don't ordinarily read "travelogs", but I found this one very funny and informative at the same time.

It is about 2 middle-aged guys who decide to walk the Appalachian Trail (2200 miles from Georgia to Maine). Along the way they meet some nice, some obnoxious people, admire the beauty of the land, tell you the truth about the National Park Service, and the history of the trail.
