This first laugh-out-loud book in The Appalachian Trail Series explores nearly 300 miles of rugged mountain trail from the AT's beginning at Amicalola Falls through Great Smokey Mountains National Park. An eccentric and loveable but destructive German Shepherd named Mowgli leads the way. Together, Josh and Mowgli clumsily amble through the southern wilderness and quickly learn just how unfit and unprepared for the Appalachian Trail they really are. Along with hiking pals Diego and Bexley, they discover the boundless beauty of the southern Appalachian Mountains, the dangers of venturing into unpredictable forests, and the opportunity to deeply experience America's wilderness and the quirky but unforgettable rural towns that surround it. Following Mowgli is a book that is as easily enjoyed by hardcore hikers, weekend warriors, and by folks who would only hike a trail if there were elevators and escalators involved. This book will leave you with the feeling that you have hiked the southern section of the Appalachian Trail yourself, without having to get chased by bears, climb a single mountain, go weeks without bathing, or worse- live without ice cream. But while living vicariously on this Appalachian Trail journey may save you from a lot, it won't keep you from leaving a piece of your heart out on the southern Appalachian Trail.
