IRB 3

For my third IRB I am going down a different route.  My first two books were based around ideas and were concepts.  This marking period however, I am going with a book that is based purely on real events.  This marking period I am going to read Bill Bryson’s A Walk in the Woods: Rediscovering America on the Appalachian Trail.  I chose this book because I enjoy the outdoors and I like things like hiking and backpacking.  Also, since the Appalachian trail is so close to home I have thought of hiking long segments of it and so I’d like to see what he says about it to see a first hand perspective.  I have also heard that it is a humorous interesting book and it might be a good way to change up what I have been reading so far.
