A Walk in the Woods by Bill Bryson

A Walk in the Woods by Bill Bryson is a memoir about travel, the outdoors, and middle class rural American culture. It's also got some wonderfully comic moments, and Bryson really doesn't take himself too seriously as he walks the entire length of the Appalachian Trail. Recommend this to people who enjoy Dave Barry's humor column (and that type of writing) non-fiction, memoirs, and travelogues.
