Grandma Gatewood's Walk: The Inspiring Story of the Woman Who Saved the Appalachian Trail Ben Montgomery , Patrick Lawlor (Narrator)

Emma Gatewood told her family she was going on a walk and left her small Ohio hometown with a change of clothes and less than two hundred dollars. The next anybody heard from her, this genteel, farm-reared, sixty-seven-year-old great-grandmother had walked 800 miles along the 2,050-mile Appalachian Trail. By September 1955 she stood atop Maine’s Mount Katahdin, sang “America, the Beautiful,” and proclaimed, “I said I’ll do it, and I’ve done it.” Format 288 pages, Paperback Published April 1, 2016 by Chicago Review Press FIRST PAPERBACK EDITION PUBLISHED 2016 ISBN 9781613734995 (ISBN10: 1613734999) USED BOOK IN GOOD CONDITION
