Grandma Gatewood's Walk: The Inspiring Story of the Woman Who Saved the Appalachian Trail by Ben Montgomery
Emma Gatewood told her family she was going on a walk and left her small Ohio hometown with a change of clothes and less than $200. The next anybody heard from her, the 67-year-old great-grandmother had walked 800 miles along the 2,050-mile Appalachian Trail. Her vocal criticism of the lousy, difficult stretches led to bolstered maintenance, and very likely saved the trail from extinction. Grandma Gatewood’s Walk shines a fresh light on one of America’s most celebrated hikers.
