Epigraph

Dedication

To the four generations of volunteers and on-the-ground agency partners who created the Appalachian Trail and have kept it blooming ever since.

First words

(Foreword) I don't know when I first heard of the Appalachian Trail, but I remember very clearly when I first saw it.

The route of today's Appalachian Trail once delineated the colonial American frontier, sparsely settled by trappers and surveyors and small farmers in communities - more often than not - in the North and on scattered, more isolated plots in the South.
