I thought it was a wonderful book, very entertaining, very thoughtful, and quite well-written. Whoever said he was snobbish seems to be in some kind of holier than thou clique of thru-hikers. Reading that post I could almost see a guy with his nose turned up, head slightly wobbling side to side... (in other words, snobbish...)
Also, EVERYONE in the south needs to be made fun on, lol... including myself! I still find myself doin' dumb hick stuff, it's ridiculous..
Somone also mentioned something about the importance of a trail name being somewhat adolescent. I agree, but still kinda fun.. hehe.. just not important really..
Anyway, can't wait to read more of his books.. And hope he finishes the trail some day! cheers...
