[Cdt-l] Walk in the woods

[Paul Magnanti]

>>Think of the hundreds (thousands even) of people who tried to
explain the AT experience before Bill Bryson 
>>came out with his best selling
"A Walk in the Woods" I doubt there will ever be such a universal embrace 
>>of someone's trail description to that extent again.
 

WILD by Cheryl Strayed is definitely in this mold for the PCT.

Became the first choice for Oprah's reborn  book club and has sold oodles of copies (including being on the NYT best seller
list)
.
Expect more people on the PCT in next 3-5 yrs (much like Bryson did for the AT)
