Juliana Chauncey has masterfully filled a huge void with her new book "Hiking from Home," offering advice, perspective, and words of encouragement to those back home who love, support, and miss their loved one who've answered the call of the trail. This in-depth instruction manual on long-distance communication should be required reading for both, the traveling hiker, AND the ones they've left behind. Written from the perspective of an experienced thru-hiker with thousands of miles behind her, "Hiking from Home" thoughtfully addresses the stress and anxiety that family members experience in their hiker's absence and provides a roadmap for dealing with the pitfalls of maintaining the sanity, patience, and understanding that both parties are going to need to successfully complete their trek."
