Discover the world of hiking the Appalachian Trail through the eyes of a young man who was anything but prepared. Experienced hikers who attempt a long distance hike usually take months or years to plan and prepare. Then there's Jamie. After an abrupt end to his job, he sets out to accomplish a feat deemed impossible by most people hiking over two thousand miles from Maine to Georgia on The Appalachian Trail. With little time to prepare and no prior experience, Jamie attempts the hike with sheer determination. The goal in the beginning was to survive each day. After a month of learning everything the hard way, he started to adapt. Follow his transformation into an accomplished hiker, one step at a time. An avid hiker will read this book wondering how one person could be so foolish. Those who do not hike might think he's crazy. And then there are people who are trapped in a world wishing to do something adventurous but lack the knowledge, experience, or time for it and they will feel inspired.

most folks writing about hiking the AT are old hats at going the distance and being organized, it was refreshing to read about one (of many, i'm sure) write of his misadventures along the way, learning the ropes as he went...and all they folks he met, along with the trials and tribulations...a good read.

Great Read!
I really enjoyed the story of the author's transformation from being laid-off from a corporate job, to his audacious and ill-prepared plan to hike the entire Appalachian Trail. His account of the lessons learned, the people he met and the obstacles he overcame were great. It is written from a voice the is easy to relate to, there are several humorous parts and I was surprised how emotional the final pages turned out to me. I definitely recommend this to anyone who enjoyed Bill Bryson's "A Walk in the Woods"
I Read this one in two days, although my facination with this book was two fold 1) I have a secret desire to hike the AT, 2) I am friend with the author. Given those two truths, I couldn't stop reading this book. I shook my heads at many points disbelieving his lack of basic hiking knowledge and celebrated his grit and determination to fulfill his goal. Most impressively, he wrote a book bringing his adventure to others to experience second hand.
Got the book for Christmas from my son, started reading it and couldn't put it down! I live in the Atlanta area and have day hiked and overnighted on the AT for years, and found Young Guns story of his thru hike amazing. His story is one of a guy who gets laid off and probably felt like a failure, who takes on one of the hardest physical and mental challenges imaginable and completes it! In the process he rediscovered
himself and learned what was truly important to him. Excellent read.
Great read about the AT and thru hiking the trail.
