I do not agree with David. Yes, the messege gets old as Bryson goes on about the AT and how it is not what it used to be, but it is a messege he feels strongly about. The factual sitations from art pieces, books, and people are amazing. Although each refrence is completely different, Bryson has found a way to relate them all to the same messege. Yes, it gets boring to read on for 5 pages straight of Brysons passionate messege but without it all we are reading is a walk down a silly trail.
I agree with Joy. The information is very intersesting and it allows the reader to feel more a part of the story and understand that this trail is like none other. When Bryson includes the piece about the fungus, but you can never find it anymore, it is deffinatly to let the reader know that things arent the same anymore. The trail is much changed, and not for the better. The reader then indeed feels compelled to be greatfull and appreciate nature a little bit more.
