We have a very eclectic selection for June's #ClassicLSFBC. I think any of them would make for a enjoyable read or reread. As usual, the book with the most votes will be for June, and the next closest will be the choice for July. I'll announce the winners on Monday. #ClassicLSFBC
so-soA Walk in the Woods recounts Bill Bryson‘s courageous decision to embark on a hike along the Appalachian Trail, from Georgia to Maine. At least that‘s how far the trail extends. Through his journey, Bill takes readers on a humorous adventure, sharing comedic anecdotes about life on the trail.

Gary Younge giving a rousing argument for political engagement (instead of the history talk I was hoping for: but it was excellent anyway).
