Publisher's Synopsis
In the spring of 01988, while struggling to deal with great tragedy and loss, Airman Page found himself at a crossroads. Honorably discharged from the Military in Texas, and in his civilian guise as Dug Fresh, he decided to walk home from Georgia via the world-famous Appalachian Trail. Told in two parts, book one shares the travails of his trek, as he thru-hiked north with a zany band of crazy misfits and wizened wanderers, and records their many madcap adventures along the way."
