The August book selection is Grandma Gatewood’s Walk by Ben Montgomery. This book recounts how, at 67, Emma Gatewood quietly left her Ohio home and set out to hike the entire Appalachian Trail alone. With meager supplies, she braved rattlesnakes, storms, and strangers, turning hardship into resolve and sparking a movement that helped preserve the trail.
