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.

比爾•布萊森的《萬物簡史》無限好看,而他寫的六本遊記我隻看瞭兩本,看過的第一本已經忘記瞭叫什麼名字,這麼說你也大緻知道那本書沒給我留下什麼印象,《偏跟山過不去》這本是前段時間齣差往返北京的路上看的,內容和書名都翻譯的有點拗口,有些句子長的讓人經常迴不過脖...
評分 評分打量久違的美國。。。 重巒疊嶂間的阿巴拉契亞小道是全球最長山間小路、、、對極富冒險探索精神、極富暴走經驗的職業探 險者而言,穿越阿巴拉契亞小道也是一件極為冒險和艱難的事情。。。而布萊森決定放棄所有交通工具、隻 靠著兩條腿穿越超過 3000 公裏阿巴拉契亞更屬驚人決定。
評分戶外旅行的佳作,處處透著睿智、幽默、犀利以及驚人的博學,從阿巴拉契亞小道延伸開去,堪稱美國近代自然史的小百科。可惜翻譯實在不敢恭維,語句近乎直譯,生硬拗口,有些句子又長又彆扭讓人差點一口氣提不上來,還有錯彆字,糟蹋瞭一本好書。接力齣版社,望再接再厲。
評分真正的旅行是修行 這是在圖書館隨手翻到的書,不是書名有趣,而是封麵上對於阿巴拉契亞小道的介紹,無端的使我想起電影《朝聖之路》(那條路在西班牙的聖地亞哥,一個父親為瞭完成兒子的徒步朝聖的願望,找迴自我和親情的故事),想來一定有比電影更真實的體驗,加上評論說,作...

Hiking the Appalachian Trail is one of my goals of life.
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.
評分I really love this book. It's such a delightful piece of reading.
評分電影挺好看的,剛好在OCPL後麵的二手書店淘到這本書,一美刀就買下來瞭。感覺美國的二手書舊書市場真是良心。
評分Another trip to rediscover America. Bravo! Mr. Bryson.
