Description:

Bob Welch's new book "Seven Summers (And a Few Bummers): My Adventures Hiking the 2,650-Mile PCT" answers one question among many: After "just doing Oregon," can two sixty-something brothers-in-law complete the entire Pacific Crest Trail that defeats more than half those who attempt it? Poignant, poetic, and fall-down funny, this endearing story from the award-winning Welch will help readers understand the soul of America's iconic trail, laugh in the face of aging, celebrate friendship, and, hikers or not, consider living life with more thirst for adventure.
