Book Review: On Trails by Robert Moor

I read that a while ago. I agree it’s definitely worth reading.

Who wants to read this book? I’ve got a copy I’ll be happy to pass on. It’s a really good read! Could we manage a member driven book exchange on BPL?

If you’d like to read this book pm me your name and I’ll keep a list. The first person ( I’ll pm them that they are first)  can send me a self-addressed, postage paid envelope and I’ll send them the book.

Maybe this could be organised without a level of pm’ing that people would find awkward? and the inevitable one to one exchange of mailing addresses? I guess this goes on with gear sales all the time.

Anyway I’ve got a copy I’ll pass on if anyone wants it.But I guess I’d stipulate that you be willing to PM an address for the next person to pass the book on. Is that too much ?

Seeing this review just reminded me again that the helpful exchange of information is a high value on BPL and books, literature, even media information is part of that. Maybe we could amend the forum “on the Web” to “Web, Books, Media” or something like that.

A complimentary read might be Wanderlust: by Rebecca Solnit. Which is more about rambling, walking, pilgrimages etc than trails.

Also strongly recommend. One of those books that touches on so many aspects of life while still focusing on the core subject.

Stopped reading this book about 40% through a few months ago, and haven’t picked it up again. I can see why many people like it, but the writing style was not for me.
