        Going It Alone

        Going It Alone

        Ramblings and Reflections from the Trail

        by Tim Hauserman

        ISBN: 9781647790653

        Pub Date: 2 August 2022

        Going It Alone is the story of the conflict between joy and loneliness Tim Hauserman discovered on a series of backpack trips in the wilderness: a tale of self-induced misadventures and overwhelming sadness but also many moments of sublime rapture. It is a humorous, humble take on the experience of spending time alone in the wilderness—part exquisite nature journal, part Bill Bryson in the woods—with a unique voice and take on the world.
