After spending two decades in Europe, travel memoir humorist Bill Bryson returns home to New Hampshire and decides there is no better welcome back for him than a hike on the 2,200-mile Appalachian Trail, a feat about which he knows nothing. This hilarious account, sprinkled with interesting history of the trail, is full of humorous anecdotes and challenges he faced during his hike. I highly recommend this book if you want a light, fun, and interesting read.
