Summary: Great book
Comment: I'm neither a newbie nor a veteran with thousands of miles on my boots, but I've found tons of useful information in this book. The friendly, straight-forward approch makes the information much easier to digest. The anecdotes are also useful for driving a point home.

Summary: Excellent introduction to Hiking and Backpaking
Comment: Cindy and Todd's book gives excellent information on the technical aspects of camping: everything from the type of gear you do and do not need, how to pack that backpack, how to stay warm on the trail, how to keep from getting blisters, how to bring your kids along safely and comfortably. Their style of writing is warm and conversational. It feels like you're bringing along an old and knowledgeable friend as you take your first long hike. Excellent!
