If you’re interested in quicksand pits, grizzly bear stalking, flash floods, and man vs. goose fights, then this might interest you. These are the experiences Jack Bennett faced while researching the best day hikes across the country for his new book Dream Hikes Coast to Coast.

In a recent review of Dream Hikes, The Cleveland Plain Dealer said “Bennett’s descriptions and impressions of the trails often border on poetic.” Inside this guide you will find more than just a scenic hike “Some encompass history, such as the Chaco Canyon pueblos of New Mexico and the Billy Yank Trail of the Gettysburg National Military Park in Pennsylvania, where 51,000 troops were killed or wounded during the Civil War.”

So if you’re a history lovin’, adventure seeking, hiking in the great outdoors kinda guy (or gal), give this book a try!
