Author Description

"Stories From the Trail is a collection of writing about wayfinding, specifically, hiking -- what a walk (or a roll, depending on the ambulatory needs of the writer) through the woods, across a prairie, over a desert, or up a mountain has to offer in terms of reflections, hard-earned lessons, and stories. These are essays about and poetic interpretations of specific experiences out on the trail, hiking as a lifestyle choice, and reflections that bring to light how time moving through the natural world has added to each writer's life -- and thus their contribution to the world -- for good."--Page 4 of cover.
