While it has been labeled as a travel book, it is also a nature book also with a bit of humor thrown in for good measure.
From the back cover: The Appalachian Trail stretches from Georgia to Maine and covers some of the most breathtaking terrain in America. If you're going to take a hike, it's probably the place to go. And Bill Bryson is surely the most entertaining guide you'll find. Here's the history and ecology of the trail and some of the hardy (or just foolhardy) folks Bryson meets along the way--and a couple of bears. Already a classic, "A Walk in the Woods" will make you long for the great outdoors (or at least a comfortable chair to sit and read in).
