04.25: The Inspiring Story of the Woman Who Saved the Appalachian Trail

2014-03-18 02:35:19| Powells Books Events Calendar

Emma Gatewood told her family she was going on a walk and left her small Ohio town with a change of clothes and less than 200 dollars. The next anybody heard from her, this farm-reared, 67-year-old great-grandmother had walked 800 miles along the Appalachian Trail, later becoming the first woman to hike the entire trail alone. Ben Montgomery's Grandma Gatewood's Walk (Chicago Review Press) is her compelling story — one of triumph, illustrating the full power of human spirit and determination.
