Very Enjoyable March 8, 2008

I found the book fascinating. As I close in on retirement an adventure like this one tickles my intrest.
I have several of the authors books, "A paddlers guide to the everglades" is a must have for canoe/kayak travel there..... His guide books are second to none in information that you can use, very detailed.
 What a Great Adventure! February 23, 2008
I just finished this book about the author's adventure on the Florida Trail. It seems to me that he really captured the true spirit of the trail with this book. It's not always perfect weather, and it's not easy, but that's not why we like the trial. It's the ADVENTURE! Johnny seems to have a real passion for the outdoors and the history of where he travels. This book makes me want to take advantage of the Florida Trail. If it weren't for him putting this book out there, I never would believe it was possible for me to attempt such a daunting challenge. Thanks Mr. Molloy. I look forward to more of your adventures.
 One soggy wet hike, Florida! January 3, 2008
6 out of 9 found this review helpful
Having hiked 629 miles of the AT in Virginia and New England, I thought I might start hiking sections of the Florida Trail, now that I am retired in Florida. I had just read Ten Million Steps by M.J. Eberhart. The story of a ten month hike from Key West to Quebec. I was hoping to read a more detailed account of the Florida Trail.
Johnny Molloy paints a wet 78 day slog through endless swamps and bogs on a poorly maintained and marked trail with little to poor resupply points along the trail. Eberhart painted a better picture. Is one a pessimist or is the other an optimist? There was little in the book that would encourage me to put my pack on and hit the trail in Florida.
