<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><b>This book showcases more than 100 great hikes within a 2-hour drive of Atlanta.</b><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><i>Afoot & Afield: Atlanta</i> by Marcus Woolf sorts through a myriad hiking opportunities at various parks, wilderness areas and other natural areas around Atlanta. With this book, people can quickly find important information to help them choose the perfect journey, including highlights they'll experience on the trail, the distance of the hike and time needed to complete the journey. Also, turn-by-turn directions identify specific features to help people avoid taking a wrong turn. Because many people now hike with a smartphone or GPS, the book includes specific waypoint coordinates, which people can load into a device to help guide them. <p/>To give people a greater understanding and appreciation for the places they visit, <i>Afoot & Afield: Atlanta</i> also weaves in the interesting history of Native-Americans, Civil War battles, the Georgia Gold Rush and the evolution of Atlanta. Plus, it covers some of the myths and legends born in the North Georgia Mountains. <p/>Leaning on 17 years of experience covering the outdoor industry, Woolf also included gear information and travel tips to help people hike safely.<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Marcus Woolf has written for national outdoor magazines, such as "Backpacker" and "Outside," and for 20 years he served as an editor and journalist for outdoor business publications. In 2011, he cofounded The Adventure Post website, where he shares his passion for the outdoors and adventure travel. While doing the legwork for this book, he survived a nose-to-nose encounter with a bear at 2 a.m. and a charge from a particularly mean opossum. Woolf is based in the Southeast, where he enjoys hiking, kayaking, and an unhinged passion for Alabama football.
