The longest continuous footpath in the world, the Appalachian Trail stretches along the East Coast of the United States, from Georgia to Maine, through some of the most arresting and celebrated landscapes in America. At the age of forty-four, in the company of his friend Stephen Katz (last seen in the bestselling Neither Here nor There ), Bill Bryson set off to hike through the vast tangled woods which have been frightening sensible people for three hundred years. Ahead lay almost 2,200 miles of remote mountain wilderness filled with bears, moose, bobcats, rattlesnakes, poisonous plants, disease-bearing tics, the occasional chuckling murderer and - perhaps most alarming of all - people whose favourite pastime is discussing the relative merits of the external-frame backpack. Facing savage weather, merciless insects, unreliable maps and a fickle companion whose profoundest wish was to go to a motel and watch The X-Files, Bryson gamely struggled through the wilderness to achieve a lifetime's ambition - not to die outdoors.

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...
評分Just imagine two fat guys who are no longer young taking up the challenge of hiking the Appalachian Trail (which is more than 2000 mile s). Worse , these two guys are total rookies when it comes to hiking , and horribly unprepared for what lies ahead of the...
評分《偏跟山過不去》,這本書是一年前匆匆讀過的。遲至近日,重新品味,便有瞭更濃厚的味道。 記得初讀時,有點不習慣它除瞭一張地圖之外,沒有任何配圖的形式。從編輯的職業病齣發,最先憂慮的是,現在哪裏還有齣版旅行圖書不花哨不點綴不文藝的,這本書算是個例外瞭。也許因...
