An Inspiration for Solo Adventurers

I can't recommend this book highly enough. I'm a single older woman who always hikes alone, because my friends aren't into hiking. I thought I was the only one in this situation and was beginning to think that there was something wrong with me, because I do enjoy the solitude of solo hiking. Then I found "Going Alone" in my local bookstore. I read a couple of pages and bought it. I found myself muttering, "Me, too!" several times while reading it. The essays cover a broad range of outdoor pursuits and the writing is excellent. It is really an inspiration for the solo adventurer.
