Subject: [pct-l] Books for tent reading


I'm looking for names of books that would be good reading while backpacking.
I would prefer a paperback for obvious reasons, something not too scary or
too sappy would be good.  Something funny, or romantic would be acceptable
as well.  Of course, subjects of hiking and wilderness travel are always top
of the list.

My husband and I will be reading this book to each other over a 1 week trip.
Planning a trip along the North Coast Wilderness trail, Olympic National
Park, end of March.  With long nights still in effect (7p-6a) of darkness,
we will be spending more time in the tent than sleeping procludes.

Have read "Ecotopia" by Ernest Callenbach with good results, and am
listening to "A Walk in the Woods" by Bill Bryson which is going well.  This
general genre or similar would work well for me.

Any and all tips/suggestions are welcomed.
