A useful, but not a very fun book.
Roland Mueser did a through hike in the mid 90s and published this book in 1998. While doing the thru hike, he gathered names and addresses for a group of people who went on to do all or much of the trail and he interviewed or surveyed them on a bunch of topics.
This is a pretty good slice of what the trail was like a few years ago. It is interesting to see what has changed. There were only 2 ultralighters among the group of 138 respondents.
I didn't take it back to the book store because I figure it will become more interesting as time goes on and things on the trail change.
