Sobre este artículo
New York : The Lyons Press, 2000. Book. Fine. Hardcover. 1st Edition. Clean hardcover book and dust jacket, second printing of the first edition. Black boards with green spine, white lettering on spine. No bumping, fading or wear. Binding is tight and square, pages and edges are clean and bright. Clean endpapers - no names, writing or marks. Illustrated with maps. 233 pages. Clean dust jacket is unchipped, no tears, not price clipped; enclosed in new archival quality removable mylar cover. The Appalachian Trail is the world's longest continuously marked footpath, stretching 2,160 miles between Georgia and Maine. Here is the story of Robert Rubin's trek as a dispirited, burnt out by a job 38-year old determined to hike the whole thing. This is an intelligently and beautifully written look at one of the few remaining pilgrimages in our ironic, disillusioned age. Rubin offers a clear-eyed but loving view of the dwindling Appalachian wilderness, the history and landscape of the trail, and the remarkable hiker sub-culture that exists along it. .
