Iâve recently published a book, THREE HUNDRED ZEROES, about my entire hike of the Appalachian Trail in 2007/2008. This is an in-depth look at not only what it takes to hike the trail, but surviving major heart surgery as part of the hike. The book was recently selected as a finalist in the 2010 Next Generation Indie Book Awards Contest.
This 328-page book, with 39 photographs, tells a humorous adventure story that captures what it is like to hike that trail for six months with a hammock and a ham radio. Since the recovery period for my six-artery heart bypass was 300 days, I took three hundred âzero daysâ to get back on the trail. It isnât so much a how-to book, but readers have told me that they felt it offered lots of information that they hadnât seen anywhere else. Iâd argue thatâs only because I show how people how not to do things, so they learn by my mistakes. For more information about the book, check out the website: threehundredzeroes.com <http://threehundredzeroes.com/> or the blog at blog.threehundredzeroes.com/ <http://blog.threehundredzeroes.com/> . The book is available on Amazon.com <http://tinyurl.com/248ymjg> . If you do read the book, I would love to hear your comments. Iâm currently on a book tour along the east coast of the US. If your book club or organization would like to arrange for a visit and PowerPoint presentation about my hike of the trail, please contact me and weâll see if we can work it into the schedule.
