What's the title and when was it written? I used to read his books, but
haven't kept up with any of the last 10-20 years. He now has a co-author for
his "Complete Hiker". I would guess he's in his 70s. Rafting doesn't seem to
be his game, but maybe he had some particular reason for it.

Yes I'm like you.... I read his first few books and
then sort of lost track of him.

The first book I ever read was "The Thousand Mile
Summer" at age 188 and it made a big impact on me.

Then I read "The man Who Walked Thru Time"

However I've since learned he has written quite a few
other books and have taken up reading his works again.

here is list of his works
