[at-l] Awwww.....Lynn Seltzer
Actually - I'm just putting Lynns book thru its gazillionth read these last
couple nites. Each section is the perfect length to read in bed before
sleeping! It's starting to look a tad scruffy. It is my favorite trail
book of all and the one I most recommend. It actually lives in my
nightstand vs the bookcase.
Brysons - the same for me - it was funny and enjoyable up to around when he
stopped walking and started driving. I had it on tape and Tape 1 broke cuz
it was soo much fun to listen to in traffic, but I'm not even sure where
tape 3 & 4 are these days.
cheerio

Lynn...if you are still out there, your book was more successful, at least
IMHO.
I've read your book more that twice thru. I read Bryson's
only as far as it held my interest. Somehow, it is my memories
that when he actually stopped hiking, the humor dried up or
for some reason i lost interest.
Your book "A Season on the Trail" held my interest all the way
and I'\m sure I will reread it again.
That's what I consider true success for an author. There is a big
difference
between a good afternoon read and a GRREAT TRAIL BOOK!!!!!
