Almost Somewhere: Twenty-eight Days on the John Muir Trail

"Suzanne Roberts sets off on a remarkable Sierra journey that will test the limits of physical endurance, of friendship, and of faith in self... This is not the usual wilderness story of independence, competition, and violence. Here, thankfully, is the more urgent story of intimacy, community, and compassion. A loving, and lovely, ode to life John T. Price, author of Not Just Any Land "In Almost Somewhere we get to travel both the physical John Muir Trail - its history, its flowers and trees and shadowy peaks - and the gritty emotional landscape of the three women who make the journey. Where are we in the world, anyway? Suzanne Roberts helps us know that the only place we can be is here, giving it all we have, day by day." Fleda Brown, author of Driving with Dvorak
