Prior to reading A Walk in the Woods, I had only read one book by Bill Bryson. Thunderbolt Kid was hysterically funny about growing up male in the 1950's in the Midwest. I laughed as I turned each page. Walk in the Woods is unique - still Bill Bryson's humor which makes one laugh aloud especially when describing people or events as he travels along the Appalachian Trail. What is memorable about this read however, is what is learned...about the trail, about human nature, about relationships, and yes, even geography and geology. I won't forget this book!
