“Hey! ----Aren't you supposed to be working?!” And yet, here you are searching for another good book to read ---in the hiking section of all places. Does that mean you’ve thought about going on a backpacking adventure of your own, like all the people who through-hike the Appalachian Trail (AT)? Me too.

A co-writing effort between human and artifical intellegence. There’s a road they don’t mark on most maps. It begins in the hum of neon and ends in the hush of something older. The towns along it flicker like half-remembered dreams—places with names like Winter Wheat, Night Light, and Shrub, where deer lick mailboxes, cartoon ghosts have siblings, and the jukebox only plays songs with the word “go.” It’s 1948, or maybe 2948. Time runs sideways here. In this whimsical travelogue through thirteen imaginary towns on an alternate Route 66, the author invites you to ride shotgun as ...

Since Roman days the Rhine valley has always had great strategic importance as one of the main arteries in Europe. During the Middle Ages more castles were built within its narrow confines than in any other valley in the world, and today the remains of these once proud structures form an integral part of the Rhine landscape, adding greatly to the romantic atmosphere which has made it famous. "Castles on the Rhine" is the perfect book for both the traveler and the historian. It not only contains tons of photos, but the book goes through a brief historical summary of the area, then gives an ...

After the adventure in Moscow, Azau, climbing Mt Elbrus, and then exploring St Petersburg, Russia, I continued the adventure. I spent a few days in Finland followed by a flight over to Iceland. After renting a car and checking out Reykjavik, I toured around the northern and northeastern part of the island. The last part of the adventure was my return to North America as I flew over to Halifax, Nova Scotia. The train then took me to Quebec City and Montreal. To end the journey, I caught another train to central New York and then a flight back to Arizona.

For Spring Break, I was the tour guide for a trip from Arizona into Mexico. I led my mother and Art from Phoenix to Nogales and then into Hermosillo and Los Mochis. From there, we caught El Chepe into the Barrancas del Cobre (Copper Canyon Railroad) as it passed through the beautiful Sonoran Desert and into the mountains surrounding Creel. In Creel, we toured the Parque Nacional Cascada de Basaseachi, Mexico's highest year round waterfall), the Valle de Las Ranas y los Hongos (Valley of the Frogs and Mushrooms), the Valle de las Monjes (Valley of the Monks), the San Igancio Mission Church, ...

In 2013, Bill Bennett walked the Camino Frances – the iconic 800km ancient pilgrimage route across Spain. Before he left, he began a blog for a handful of family and friends. He posted each day of his walk, and his following quickly grew exponentially, principally because of his quirky writing style, but also because he used the blog to explore his inner journey with brutal honesty, unafraid to explore his failings. When he returned home, he wrote a book based on the blog posts. The book, called The Way, My Way, became an international best-seller. The book then became a highly acclaimed ...

“I’d never done anything crazy like this before – a pilgrimage walk. I was not a hiker, and I wasn’t a Catholic. In fact, I wasn’t even sure I was a Christian. On the last government census when I had to state my religion, I'd said I was a Buddhist, mainly because they’ve had such a hard time in Tibet I felt they needed my statistical support. I was also not an adventure traveller. For me, adventure travel was flying coach. All this backpacking and wearing of heavy boots and flying off to France to walk ancient pilgrimage routes was a new experience, and not one that made me ...

Deciding that my style of travel would ultimately be safe during the global pandemic, I had converted my summer trip to Colombia and Ecuador into a winter trip to Mexico. Mexico is basically the only place an American can travel to by air and not be quarantined for two weeks. Europe was not an option and my winter break isn't long enough for anywhere else. So, an easy destination was the only consideration. The Quintana Roo area of Mexico on the Yucatan peninsula was the logical choice. My travels took me from Cancun south along the coast to Puerto Morelos, Tulum, Cozumel, and Chetumal. ...

A revised 10th Anniversary edition of the classic memoir that many say is the best Camino book they ́ve read. Bill Bennett ́s book has now been made into a major movie, and reading it you ́ll see why. Written in a humorous self-deprecating style reminiscent of Bill Bryson, it tells the story of a stubborn self-obsessed and pedantic man who undergoes a fundamental shift in character whilst walking the famous 800km pilgrimage route across Spain. At times laugh-out-loud funny, at other times so deeply personal and emotional you ́ll have a tear in your eye, The Way, My Way is a must read ...

During the winter of 2014 I took a bus from Phoenix to El Paso and then into Mexico for a few weeks' adventure. From Chihuahua I took the El Chepe train through the spectacular Barranco del Cobre (Copper Canyon). Along the way I stopped in Creel before continuing over to San Ignacio and Los Mochis. After exploring Los Mochis, I continued down the coast to Mazatlan. Durango, Zacatecas, and Aguascalientes were next followed by my final destination, Guadalajara. I also got to see a tequila distillery in the town of Tequila as well as the suburb of Zapopan.
