Unexpected Journey - Walking Home on the Appalachian Trail

by Chris Johnson

At a major turning point in my life, I left a failed marriage, what may be the best job I ever had and dared to throw it all away to hike the AT. Along the way, I was met with hardships, friendships, misery, beauty, struggle and success, confrontations with inner demons both old and new, and ultimately, triumph. Herein is the account, written honestly and from the heart, of the daily routine, the common and extraordinary, and occasionally life-altering, events encountered while following a dream of a hike on the Appalachian Trail.

Mid life crisis, a lot of self doubt and angst but very detailed diary of his hike sometimes too repetitive.
