Discover what it means to be 'trailwise' in one man’s gripping account of his trials and triumphs along the Appalachian Trail.Spanning nearly 2,200 miles, the Appalachian Trail is no small feat. For one man, Duane 'Tank' Schexnayder, it presented an opportunity, one that would forever change his outlook on life. A nature lover since boyhood, Tank made the decision in 2019 to retreat into the wild of the Appalachian Mountains and discover the peace and beauty that lies within. This is his memoir. In One Foot in Front of the Other, Tank takes readers along on his journey, sharing the highs and lows of his remarkable trek. Revealing how to conquer the trail through preparation, determination, and the kindness of fellow travelers, Tank doesn’t shy away from the harsh realities of the trail with its rigorous mental and physical demands, and as he rises to meet the challenges, the reward is even sweeter. And through it all, he demonstrates an abiding respect for the power of nature and its majesty that will inspire and teach readers to be brave both on and off the trail. An ideal companion for anyone preparing to hike the Appalachian Trail or any long-distance trail, Tank’s memoir is as much an enjoyable read as it is a practical guide.
