Author Talk with Ben Montgomery
Thursday, September 22 at 6:30 PM

Join us on Zoom to hear New York Times bestseller author, Ben Montgomery, author of Grandma Gatewood’s Walk, discuss the story of the first woman to hike the entire 2,050 mile Appalachian Trail after telling her adult children she was “going for a walk”. At 67, Emma Gatewood left in sneakers, a change of clothes, and $200. Ben researched her trip through interviews with family, other hikers, with magazine articles (she became famous along the way), and her diaries and journals. The book is a carefully researched and a very entertaining story!
